I have increased my Mac's video screen from the standard 6 1/2 * 4 1/4 inches
to 7 1/4 * 5 1/4 inches. The following adjustment will increase the size of the
video image by about 20 %. To do this just open your Mac and adjust the, well
labelled, potentiometers, on the video board. The potentiometers are very easy
to reach and adjust. After you have enlarged the video image, to just short of
the periphery, then readjust the focus potentiometer.
BE VERY CAREFUL!!! There are very HIGH VOLTAGES on this board. Use an
insulated screwdriver and adjust only the potentiometers. You shouldn't have
any problems so long as you DON"T POKE AROUND!
I now find it so much easier working with this wide screen Mac. The only short
comings you might notice is that the focus may be off, very slightly, in the
screen periphery. To provide a reference for focusing I used 9 point text
across the entire screen.
