Ouch, be careful with a dot-pitch that large.  Most VGA quality monitors
are on the .28 mm side of things, and a really sharp Trinitron is
looking at .25 mm.

I bought a MacSync that had .28 mm, and found it to be way too fuzzy for
my liking.  My Seiko CM1445C with .25 mm dot-pitch is terrifically
clear.  As good as the Apple RGB, imho.
