No, I did not test the Jlink monitor in my kitchen.
Jack Wallen/Anyone who spends long hours in front of a computer monitor knows how important a good display can be. Yes, you should seriously consider an upgrade from that small, flat monitor.

Case in point: For years, I've used a Dell curved display monitor that was originally recommended for gaming -- and I cannot imagine going back to a flat monitor. There is just something about that curve that makes viewing easier on my eyes. My Dell monitor was pretty pricey at the time I purchased it (around$1,000) and I haven't regretted the decision.
However, when the Jlink demo arrived and I plugged it in, I realized that monitors have improved so much over the years that a$269 monitor was every bit equal to that costlier Dell.
This monitor is sure to please just about any user and won't break the bank.
