Basically, they said it was decent. One drawback about the 1460 (and I may be wrong about this), is that it is a multiple fixed frequency display, as opposed to one which syncs continuously within a range. Some SVGA cards may vary slightly in the way they achieve their 800x600 displays, so if possible, try out these types of monitors with your video adapter(s) to ensure that they sync properly (sync problems are characterized by screens being off-center, portions of the display going off the edge of the screen, etc.). You may want to check out an upcoming (July ?? issue) of PC Mag, when they will do another roundup of monitors. -- Kevin Mack - via FidoNet node 1:140/22 UUCP: ...!herald!weyr!72!Kevin.Mack Domain: Kevin.Mack@f72.n140.z1.FIDONET.ORG Standard Disclaimers Apply...
