I have half a notion to get one of these. (http://www.mwave.com/mwave/SkuSearch_v2.asp?SCriteria=AA74780) I'd love the tilt feature. Not sure about a refirb monitor though.

Nam and I just picked up a couple 24" LCD's from Best Buy for under $400 each, granted it's only been a few hours, but we love them.
I would disagree on the speakers having crisp clear sound though...maybe. They make sound, you can and understand what's being said or what music/sound effects there are, but the sound quality isn't good. However, the monitor performance (so far) makes that an insignificant factor.

Monitor speakers definitely aren't Dolby quality ;)

I thought I'd use the rotate feature (I'm assuming that's what you mean by tilt, where you can rotate it to portrait orientation), but I've actually almost never used it. I thought it'd be great for editing portraits, but it's sort of a hastle since it moves palettes and stuff around to make room.

I have a potential client who has a book he sells from his web site. At the moment he takes paypal, then ships the physical book by mail. He wants to be able to take the paypal payment (or some other credit card service) and have the person be able to download the PDF.
I'm not sure if the best way is to just send an email after he gets the order, or if there's a way to automate that process, or if there's a way to display a page with the pdf there as a link. Of course the trick is to only allow the person that paid for it to download it so they couldn't send the link out to friends and have them download it.
Anyone want to take this on?

Waple, did you mean to create a new thread with this message? Doesn't really seem relevant inside a thread about monitor deals...

That is where it would come in handy.
