I'm not so impressed with my NEC GS2A. Since it writes every other line on each
sweep, the image is constantly bouncing on the screen. The bounce is small,
but if high resolution is the reason you buy a VGA monitor (it was mine), 
then the bouncing can be most irritating. I bought a VGA monitor to run Hebrew,
which uses dots for vowells, and the dot patterns must be clear to accurately
translate the word. I just am not all that please with my bouncing dots.
