Hello.

I had been basing the unavailability, on the mainstream retailers, where 
I have not seen 4:3 monitors, for many months (or a year or so), now.

Your message has caused me to do what I should have done long ago - 
search on the Internet, whereby I have found a number of used monitors 
that are available within Perth (the state capital) in Western Australia 
(the eastern states are thousands of miles away).

So, you have revived my hope in beaing able to buy another 4:3 TFT 
monitor.

Thank you for your assistance in this.
