Digital BW, The Print

Most refurb monitors are ones that just made a trip to a dealer and 
then back because of over-ordering or mis-orders. Then they can not be 
sold as new so therefore the "refurbished" label goes on them. As long 
as they come with the same warranty, who cares. I own several LaCie 
refurbished units with no problems.
