You assumed, ah yes. I'd have thought you'd have investigated it's capablilities before the buy, but just because that is the sensible thing to do musn't let me assume everybody would do that.

I don't see where a wizzard would change anything about the viewing angle and, except of course if said wizzard advised you to throw out the old display and buy a new one.

Well, sometimes one makes assumptions on the quality of an item by it's brand, especially when one's in a damn hurry. Call me human.

It can't. IT did, however, help me simply, quickly and effectively make the best of a bad setup. Good enough, in fact, that the issues with the monitor aren't anywhere near as noticeable.
cheers

There are places (like banks) where they put hardware filters over the screens to deliberately narrow the viewing angle. Obviously they don't want to deal with snoopers.

And this has to do exactly what with my response to OP's post?

You made a comment indicating that a narrow viewing angle may be a "bad thing"tm.
I was commenting that sometimes a narrow viewing angle is a desired characteristic.

You'd have to quote me for that, as I said no such thing. You may be referring to OP's post.

I'd be more than just a little suspicious of that email, although with all the recruiting emails that flood my inbox, it would just be another one that gets ignored (recruiters tend to be pretty bad at their job).

How many mothers that have children who say "My momma ain't raised no fool!" have fools for children?

My momma raised six children; the probability that all or none are fools is pretty close to zero.

I prefer... "I'm not that stupid"... adds a sprinkle of honesty to the proclamation.

Probably because the 'non-stupid' population of people learn from their 'stupid' mistakes and know that they are capable of stupid mistakes in future - while the "I'm not stupid" crowd are probably incapable of learning from their stupid mistakes.
