I am in the market for a new monitor for my 1000 since my 1080 died,
and am seriously considering getting a Mitsubishi Diamond Scan.  A
multiscan seems to be the way to go for the long run, and the Diamond
Scan was given very good marks in the review by Amazing Computing (Oct
88).  I have seen it advertised regularly in Computer Shopper at about
$500, which seems pretty reasonable.  Assuming someone out there
actually has one, I'd like to know:

1) How has it performed overall in the time you've had it (any glitches, 
unusual behavior)?

2) Is the cabling diagram given in AC sufficient for safe & dependable
operation?  Is there anything a relative novice (in electronics) needs to
beware of in constructing the cable?  Can one be found commercially?

Any information would be greatly appreciated.
