Message-ID: <5112@tahoe.unr.edu> Date: 12 Dec 90 22:37:19 GMT Sender: news@tahoe.unr.edu Reply-To: kevinb@wrc.unr.edu (Kevin Brewer) Distribution: usa Organization: DRI-WRC Reno Lines: 28 I love my brand new IIsi but.... I have a couple of questions that I can't find the answers to in the manuals (am I not looking in the right place?). First, What is this 'gamma' thing for my monitor? (I am using the internal video 'port'). I am interested if 'gamma' can give me faster performance, or better colors. What is it's function? Second, where is the 'Convergence' button. Is it not available with internal video? Do I just have to manually align my RGB Monitor? Third, I am using a standard Apple keyboard. I notice in Excel and Word that they think I have the num locks on. Can I turn num locks on and off? Or is num locks always on for the standard keyboard? If I can turn them off, how can I? Thanks in advance for the help. If indeed this information is in one of the manuals, please just direct me.
