Imotek was the one Sony suggested. No disrespect to OMI or anything but we've used Imotek for other items, they're on the "approved supplier" list and all that jazz so that's where the monitor is headed (once we obtain a suitably large box of course).
RE: flat screen monitors. Whether or not the image quality suits seems to vary by surgeon, although in this case the monitor is primarily for teaching purposes, so it's perhaps less critical.
But anyway, thanks all.
