	I decided to get a Nanao 9070U instead of the NEC 4D. It doesn't
really cost more, perhaps $50 more at most. It is an excellent monitor and
I'm glad I made that decision over the NEC 4D. A friend has the 4D and isn't
as pleased. It does not take 10-15 seconds to switch modes. Perhaps 1/4 to
1/2 a second at most. Its only disadvantage compared to the 4D is the lack of
digital memory of the monitor parameters such as V and H pos and size. It is
a very minor disadvantage. The Nanao 9070U is highly recommended.
