I bought the Mitsubishi DIamondscan 16L instead of NEC 4D because for the
same price and 16" size you get a better-contrast display and 1280x1024
resolution in the monitor for free. So if later 1280 res board prices
come down to earth, you dont need to buy a new monitor, just replace your
Prodesigner with that card and you'll have higher res.

Youre right that the larger size of 16" will give you larger sized
characters and that is the reason you will want to pay 500 dollars more.
Because your eyes will complain after a few months of use on the 14" in
1024 res. mode. It;s not worth the aggravation inspite of you thinking
you are young.
