Is it uniform across the whole screen?
Does the screen make a noise when you turn it on as most monitors have a degaussing circuit and coil built in.
On that monitor are the red,green and blue phosphorus dots in the same pattern as the blurring? I close-up photo of a white area should show you?
All this can be checked at an ABUG, but I'm wondering if it is just a bit of focus adjustment required, again can be done at ABUG, or sometimes via a pot sticking out the back.

I’d love to visit again. I’ll look into a hotel room this time as it was a bit of a long drive for me for one day.

Happy Sunday everyone, I hope you're enjoying some sunshine where you live. 8) Just here to flag to that I plan to open the booking thread around midday on this coming Friday 8th March, which will be some five weeks before the event weekend. \:D/ I anticipate there will be 30-35 slots available, as per previous events, and I'll start a waitlist if we're oversubscribed. More info soon! :-

I'd highly recommend this recent video by Matt Godbolt, along with the Usborne book he mentions:

Apologies everyone - my Friday at work turned out to be waaaaaay busier than I anticipated. #-o Sorry about the delay, and I hope your F5 keys have not worn out.

The booking thread is now live: viewtopic.php?t=28718
