Just got a new computer monitor. I'm taking an educated guess that it wasn't made in the States. The give away is the fabulous instructions which address issues that American made producers apparently haven't thought of. For example, these helpful hints, clearly printed as a hard copy on real paper and in black and white, unequivocally state right at the beginning "Instructions may change at any time".
I'm sleep deprived right now but if I'm telling you - if those printed directions suddenly change into the Christmas story or a missive on the grazing habits of llamas vs. alpacas, I'm calling in the exorcist. It's just that simple.
These directions, sadly, do not address the question of how to use the product while sleeping like my "nearly flat screen" Broksonic television manual did. To wit, it instructed, "To watch television while sleeping, ......" Apparently, I am a bit deficient in television watching skills as I have, so far, only been able to manage the task while awake.
I do admire the marketing folks that determined that a conventional television could be sexed up by calling it a "nearly flat screen." They have my kudos and now I believe I will use this technique without further attribution as my own going forward. Awesome technique really. For example, bra size? "nearly Pamela Anderson" Yep, sounds like a winner.
