The 1495 appears to be the 1492 in a new colored skin.  It's a 14" VGA 
monitor with an analog RGB input and 31.5kHz scan freq.  THe really nice 
feature is it's unique flat screen (Flat Tension Mask) and special 
Optical Coating Lab's "no-glare" surface.  Educational price is $527.

A good alternative is the NEC 3FGX 15" Multisync Non-Int. Super VGA 
monitor.  It will do MAC or PC and sells for around $650.

If you can afford it, the New Zenith ZCM-1790 is a 17" Multi-Sync
1024x768 with a FTM and OCL coating.  This is the 17" flat screen
Compaq is reselling with their name on it.  Ed. price $1027.
