Paladin,
Let me know how you make out with this. 

Andy,
Would I have the same issues you mentioned using the Happ converter?

It may be a while before I get to it, but in the meantime here's the website that I got the idea from:

Considering your 25" med res. monitor is worth way more than a 25" std. monitor, you should sell it instead.

I thought of that.  I started looking for new 25" monitors and the best prices I found seem to be in the $450 plus shipping range.  Do you think the used med res would get that much?
