I no longer want processors in *anything*

The world was a much better, nicer and friendly place before digital washing machines, and everything worked just fine. Better in fact. Washing machines lasted 30 years. The clothes came out cleaner too.

Cannot recommend this monitor. I purchased it nearly a year ago and the original one arrived DOA and Samsung refused to replace it. Instead, they wanted to repair it. After several exchanges they finally agreed to replace it and the replacement camera/microphone doesn't work correctly. Their support is the absolute worst I have ever experienced. It is 100% outsource vendors who have no idea how the product works and their entire script is designed to frustrate users to the point where they won't do warranty service. To repair the camera, they expected me to ship (at my expense) the entire monitor to them. They would then take up to 10 days to diagnose and then let me know if it was under warranty. Last Samsung product I will ever own.
