Seems  they were made by Zenith. Thanks for the details.  Do  you 
know  where I might get the specs for an EIZO f552M. I have  one, 
but  no  manual and I don't know much about  it.  (bought  second 
hand). For example, how do I set it up with a Diamond Stealth 64?

I  could  really  do  with a manual, as  well  as  some  personal 
appraisal.
