No flicker on the 2080 monitor?  I don't know anything about the CBM 2080
monitor, but I would assume that it uses high-persistence phosphors to
reduce (practically) eliminate flicker when in interlace mode.  High persistence
phosphors have the drawback of leaving ghosts behind moving images, but I
personally think that the lack of flicker is worth it.

Which brings me to my question:
I am planning on buying a multisync monitor, in anticipation of ECS and other
future display enhancements.  While researching the multisyncs available I
found reference to some models called the Electrohome ECM 1310, 1311, 1312.
These models were rated as excellent multisync monitors the differences
between them being:
 1310 : regular phosphors, etched screen (to reduce glare)
 1311 : high-persist phosphors, no etching on screen
 1312 : high-persist phosphors, etched screen
To the best of my recollection they were all list priced the same: about $1100.
Since multisync monitors are heavily discounted, it is quite possible that
these might be selling in the same price range as other high-quality multis
such as NEC 3D, and SONY 130x models.

I have looked EVERYWHERE (well, at every ad in Computer Shopper magazine anyway)
and I cant find these monitors.  I cant remember where I saw them mentioned in
the reviews but I do remember they were from a Canadian company (I'll try and
find the name).
If anyone has any information on these Electrohome monitors (i.e. where I can
buy one, are they any good, etc) I would appreciate it greatly.  In addition,
I am curious what people think of high-persistance phosphors.  Does anyone
out there have a high-persist monitor with their amiga?  Hows it look?
Replies can be emailed and I will post a summary-- or post your replies and
save me the trouble :).
