Hello,

     I am as of today starting on my THIRD replacement 1950 monitor.  The
first monitor was extremely blurry on the edges but has no vertical jitter.
The second was blurry in the center and the tube was deformed, but also had no
vertical jitter.  The third monitor that I am using now is crystal clear with
the incredibly frustrating vertical jitter.
* Flame on *
     The BOTTOM line is... DON'T BUY A 1950.  They are the absolute worst
multisyncs you can find.  I am now stuck with this piece of junk with only
my warranty to back it (hmmmmm).  I am immediately going back to the dealer
to take this one back on Monday and get my second monitor back.  At least
it doesn't jitter.  Commodore, if it is true that you now have discontinued
the 1950 monitor all I can say is good ridance.  Now, what about replacements
for those of us with these trashy things?  I'd settle for my money back on
this part of my bundle and I'll go get an NEC 3D.  The idea behind the 1950
was a good one, it's too bad that Commodore took the cheap way out.
* Flame off *
     If all of us netters, who are having 1950 troubles, bombard Commodore
with enough mail then maybe we can get some satisfaction and possibly even
a replacement or our money back.  I can't tell everyone how much trouble I have
had with this system since I picked it up.  The monitor is now holding it up
from being a really top-notch system.  I was planning to demonstrate the
system to the campus here.  I can't do it with this really trash monitor.
It's really hard to impress people when you have to explain why the monitor is
acting the way that it is.  I hate to have to make excuses for a system that
shouldn't need any.
