Message-ID: <6143@crash.cts.com> Date: 7 Dec 90 02:16:19 GMT Sender: root@crash.cts.com Lines: 30 In-Reply-To: message from xrtnt@amarna.gsfc.nasa.gov While the Byte article may have quoted the educational price on a 4MB machine, not 8MB, and displayed a Moniterm moniter sitting atop the A3000, the display IS just as nice on the standard display options. A3000UX purchasers can choose either a color system or high resolution greyscale system. The greyscale system uses the A2024 moniter, which delivers the same resolution as the Viking I. I would hope so at least, considering the Viking I uses the same display driver :') The only difference would be screen size...the A2024 isn't as large (14 or 15"). However, the same resolution on a smaller screen will seem even sharper than the Moniterm display! And if Byte were to print retractions for every mistake they've made, they'd need to publish another magazine. They've goofed on SOMETHING in just about every Amiga-related article, and several others. I still enjoy reading their mag though, considering Amiga-specific mags tend to make even more errors.
