I have been using the ZCM-1490 for the last few weeks and have found it to
be a truly wonderful monitor.  It certainly lessens the culture shock of
leaving the color Sun4s I use at work :^).  It is very sharp, has a large
viewing area for a 14" monitor and also can be tuned very bright without
excessive distortion.  The only bad thing I can think of to say it is
that it is not a multisyncing monitor.  You cannot use it with your Mac,
nor can you use it with a Super VGA or higher resolution card.  Hopefully,
Zenith will expand their line of monitors using this flat-screen technology.
I would say that the Zenith is the best VGA monitor that you can get and
is a bargain at ~$600(mail order).
