Don't Expect it to Last

Auto Rotate died after 14 months. Just hoping it will last a little longer. I bought it for the really clear display. Wish I had known about the lack of longevity and quality. I paid $730 for it.
Will it float?

Mine quit autorotating after about six months, started hanging just after the warranty expired, and finally died just short of 2 years. Hey Andrew, tell us how you fixed them! Otherwise, I guess I'll try to get Letterman to use it in a "will it Float" segment. I've had the same bad luck with Gateway support.

Did its job for four years then DIED

Then the power issue started recently this month, I had to unplug and replug for the monitor to work and now it has died on me just ten minutes ago.
Overall I'm satisfied with the picture quality while it lasted, but with its longevity issues, I would've considered another monitor.
Gateway Customer Service was also horrendous, do not bother. If your monitor is out of warranty, just get a new one (NON GATEWAY ONE) and never buy Gateway again.
