Thinking of getting an Apple 1705 17 inch multi-scan moniter. I beleive it
is a shadow mask type. Does anyone have any opinions on this one? If you
own one, what would you give it out of ten?

TIA, Simon.

I've seen complaints about it in the past, and from what I've seen, the
1710 is worth the extra money.

I believe you can find a MagInnovision 17 inch Trinitron for just slightly more
than the 1705. I have their 15 inch Trinitron. No complain here. Great price
performance ratio.

	Don't buy a 1705, since for the same price you can get a really
quality monitor from Sony or Viewsonic.  These are the only company's
whose monitors I have used extensively so I'm not able to comment on
others.  The 1710 is good if you need the color calibration, but you
have to put up with a lot a junk like soft-switches.

I have a 1705 with my 7200/90. I've never had any problems with it so
far, and its a huge improvement over the 13" Apple RGB Monitor I used to
have (when I had an LC II). It looks great in millions of colors,
thousands, 256, whatever.
