I would like to know what would be the best monitor. I'm wanting a midsized creature with a reputation for a pleasant disposition. Nothing too small, nothing too big. Interactivity is a plus. Do you know of any who may fit this bill?

Thanks, chris

What you've described sounds more like a domesticated animal such as a dog or cat. Monitors don't really fit into the "pleasant" disposition category, at least not by most peoples definition of the term.

yea monitors aren't exactly pleasant in what it sounds like you want. They can be tolerant but you go around their rules. If you are looking for something to lay on your lap or go for walks a monitor is not what your looking for...
