I will probably buy an Everex MicroEnhancer I (600 x 480) card and a Samsung EGA monitor (roughly the same number of pixels as the card). Now the question. At one store here, the Micro Enhancer II card is only $20 more ($129 vs. $149). Is there any advantage in buying an EGA card which is more dense (800x600) than the Monitor I plan to buy? I expect to use this monitor for several years ... Rainy Days and Automatic Weapons Fire Alway Get Me Down. These opinions are mine. Jerry. (jerry@Starfish.Convergent.COM) ----- ps. One person on this heading suggested buying from JD Reed, a mail order house in New York. Does anyone have an adress or phone number for them? gph.
