Hello dave-gw0wvf,
Welcome to http://www.pcguide.com/ubb/pcgubb.gif Forums!
I assume that you're talking about the case yellowing. Unfortunately, many of the plastics used for the cases yellow through exposure to sunlight and heat.
I purchased a 21" monitor which was a lease back. When I went to the shop there were approximately 20 monitors I had to choose from. Probably 50% of them were yellowed although they were all put into service at the same time.
------------------
May all your dealings in life be win/win!

I never use anything on the screen itself except a damp paper towel. Viva. http://www.PCGuide.com/ubb/biggrin.gif

Once in a while I'll wipe down the monitor,keyboard, mouse and speakers with a paper towel and Q-tips dabed in isopropyl alcohol.Things get real clean.Also, the alcohol evaporates so fast,nothing drips into the works.
