Lines: 10 Funnily enough, the SM125 looks absolutely identical (in EVERY detail except the case colour and Atari badge and the phosphor colour) to a friends monitor on his PC. It can display 700+ by 450+ (he uses some kind of Super-Hercules graphic card). Oh and one other thing, the volume control that is marked contrast on the SM125 (well, it is a contrast control symbol) does in fact perform contrast control on his monitor which leads me to believe that Atari SM125's are basically some standard monitor (although looks can be deceiving!!). -- ZZKJ - hacking away till it no longer bytes.
