... And the saga of the Hanns-G 28" monitor continues.  When I shut it down last night, it was fine.  When powered on this morning, there is a bright red vertical line the entire height of the screen at about 30% screen width from the left side.  It won't go away.

Fortunately, this monitor came with a three-year warranty, because not long after it turned two years old it's begun throwing one fault after another.  I am becoming less and less impressed with Hanns-G with each iteration of this, and at this point I am virtually certain never to buy another Hannspree product.

It's still under warranty.  I suppose I have to deal with YET ANOTHER return for repair under warranty...  this will be its third trip back to Hannspree.

Granted, it's still very inexpensive for a monitor this size.  But at this rate, shipping for warranty returns is going to eat up the difference fast.
