Both are fantastic monitors. They take a long time to "warm up" in the morning (i.e., get focused and get the color right), so turn your machine on before getting coffee, reading mail, ogling secretary (:-), etc. Once they're locked in, they are crisp and have good contrast. The monochrome monitor is supported quite well by the SE's OS, and most good applications use the extra space well. -- Jay Windley - Dept. of Computer & Information Sciences - Kansas State Univ.
