Question : Problem: Is my CRT monitor dead?

Have a 3 year old 21' VeiwSonic Pro Series PF815 CRT monitor.  Previewed a new screensaver last night on Win XP, it played for 10 seconds  then I wiggled the mouse to end it and it started making all sorts of black and grey mush.  I power cycled the monitor on/off and same thing.  Then rebooted and it now has a solid white line down the middle of the screen.  No color just black and the white line.  Hooked it up to a different system and same white line.  Video card is OK - using it on an 15' right now.  Does anybody know if it's fixable or even worth it?  Thanks.
