I’m sure when most of you buy a monitor you’re thinking, “Sure, it looks great, but can it withstand being pelted with tiny metal plastic balls shot from a gun?” I usually just check the “Gunfire Resistance” rating on the little placard they keep on the shelf, but some people feel like they need to go hands on. Those people also feel like they need to video tape the results, which were, by the way, pretty much what you’d expect.
