The monitor is low quality, but fortunately the users here are not too picky about them. I've seen pictures of these monitors on PCs too, so they must be quite popular with PC manufacturers. However nothing can beat Sony Trinitron. DEC is now selling the VR297 and VRT16 Sony monitors for $695 educational price. Maybe the VR297 which is a 1024x864 60Hz monitor might work with the Personal DECstation's built in graphics board. Fred Velijanian University of California, Irvine fredv@uci.edu
