After MONTHS of looking around for a decent Gray Scale MONOCHROME monitor, I find it ironic that IBM may be selling what I want: IBM 8507 Monitor 64 level Gray/Grey Scale 1025 x 768 VGA, SVGA, XGA (mumble, mumble, mumble) 19 inch, NON-INTERLACE, Analogue $650.00 to $900.00 (no graphics card, local pricing sans sales tax) OF COURSE, I can't find any local shop that has one I can stare at. Does anyone out in netland have experience and/or opinions about this device, especially in a Win3 context? Also - given the SVGA card woes I've seen played out in this puddle, which card would YOU buy for this lash-up? I'm under the (perhaps mistaken) impression that 64 level grey scale means 1MB SVGA support. WILL CODEVIEW BE HAPPY WITH THIS, or must I sacrifice yet another small, unwilling animal? E-mail to andy@maxim.com will reduce/increase your karma X fold. -- |Andy Lynn |"This is just me...|What about the future? | |Teratec Systems, Inc.|impute no one else"|"And like the young lady said: | |Reston, Virginia |STANDARD DISCLAIMER|'I said live it, or live with it!'"|
