The rated thermal budget for the Dell is 187 BTU/hr

opposed to ~550 BTU/hr for the 5011P. Living in Texas, just the savings
on cooling will pay for the flat panel in a couple of years.
No doubt... I recently switched from a Sun 17E10 to a $5 scratched-up
Dell LCD panel I bought at the Mansfield Hamfest, specifically because
the room gets to over +90F with the AC off (possible in Ohio, but not
pleasant ;-) when the computer and monitor are on. I might switch
back to the CRT for the heating season, though.
And my desk no longer sags in the middle. :)
Heh... on another desk, I have a Sun 20E20... it's on a 2"x12" shelf
that doesn't sag much.
