Digital controls refers to a monitors method of adjusting its size 
and position.  Monitors that claim digital control should have internal
storage that keeps the users preference.  This feature usually requires a 
analog to digital converter to create a index to a table which holds the 
encoded size/position data. Analog controls refer to a potentiometer type 
control which may need to be adjusted if the video size and position 
changes.  The video's size and position usually change when changes in 
resolution or refresh rate take place.
