Hey Sharon,
I also have a new KDS 17" flatscreen.  No "white-flash" and no smell.  I
would say take it back.....

Subject: [PCBUILD] Monitor Problem


PCBUILD Digest - 11 Apr 2004 to 12 Apr 2004 (#2004-104)My old Gateway
monitor finally died and I purchased a KDS 17" monitor (non-LCD) from Office
Depot.  The monitor is performing well except for a rare, nanosecond-type
white flash.  My main concern is that it emits an electrical-type smell that
ebbs and flows.  It reminds me of "fried" electrical wires.
I have 14 days to return this product for a full refund.  Can this smell be
considered normal for a new monitor or am I correct in being concerned?
Thanks in advance for any help.
Sharon
