    Monitor keeps turning off with power light on

    I don't think think warming up will fix it because the monitor/computer has been on all day. If I have the brightness over 20% it turns off in like 30 seconds or less.

    Okay. I guess that ASUS you originally linked seems like a good fit. Is there any you would recommend that is like one grade lower in price? With tax and Canadian exchange, that one ends up being about $600 :(

    ^ Oh okay, I won't go with Acer. How about HP? Chromebook won't work, she wants to use the actual office software instead of the cloud thing.

    Basic Speaker System for Listening to Music in a Small Room

    Dang, I was afraid there was going to be many options :P Just makes me indecisive :( I probably won't want to change my setup once I buy it. Like, if y'all think 5 speakers would work well for my situation then I'll go for that right away (surround sound would be cool). I think I would...
