Anyone have any experience with the Nokia 447L 17" monitor? I'm thinking of getting one for my 7500. Any comments would be appreciated. Thanks. john Music is a higher revelation than philosophy. - Beethoven

<< Anyone have any experience with the Nokia 447L 17" monitor? >> I have the 447X, which is fairly different -- mine uses the Trinitron tube -- but I like it a lot. I've had no trouble with it and the picture is superb. I chose it over other Trinitrons because it supports higher resolutions at higher refresh rates. Also, it can be turned up brighter than most others with little or no loss of picture quality, which is important when working in a brightly lit room. The 447X came with a hard-wired Mac adapter that only allows you to run at 832x624. I called Nokia and they sent out a free switchable adapter, which, on my 8500, lets me change resolutions on the fly. I was going to get the Nanao Flexscan T2-17ts, which uses the Mitsubishi DiamondTron tube (a Trinitron clone), but they're hard to find. Now I'm glad I saved about $100-150 and got a comparable screen. I got the 447X for $979 from DellWare.

Any comments would be appreciated. Thanks. John, My son works for a Semiconductor Manufacture in Silicon Valley. His Company bought a number of these monitors and they are very unhappy with them. I have seen these monitors for sale at Costco and other big wholesale wherehouses. I guess you get what you pay for! -- Dewey Maxwell dmaxwell@terminus.com

Any comments would be appreciated. Thanks. I have a 447L attached to a 7500. I am using the Sony multiscan adapter, which cost less than $10 at Computer City. The monitor works well, it has a sharp focus with good colours. (I don't do professional graphics). The Mac recognizes the monitor as a multisync, and with 7.5.2 I can switch resolutions on the fly. I payed less than $700, so I cannot gripe. YMMV peace SG
