[net.micro.amiga] Monitors: what letters of the alpha

RE:

I've already asked this question, but here goes again:
At Siggraph, Aegis was demoing their software on a monitor with
an Amiga label. It seemed to have a long persistence tube. Someone
mentioned that it was a Mitsubishi. Does anyone know what it really was?

Try Priority One Electronics. I THINK they were advertising DB23s.

	If they don't have it, and you're desperate, and you are willing
to have an unsheilded connector temporarily, you can always take off the
plastic shielding of a DB25 and cut the thing down to the size of a
DB23.  Works great, we used it several times at Winner's Circle to
make makeshift KV1311 cables.

It was a Mitsubishi and it indeed have a long persistance phosphor!
If you had gone around the booth to the folks that were showing off
a CAD system on the Amiba* you would have seen them using the SAME
monitor 'cept it didn't have the Amiba* label on it.

System (HyperBase) for the Amiga(tm) personal computer. We do not
have a trademark, unregitered or otherwise on "amiba". :-)

However, we at HARLIE (tm) do hold the patent on the Graphics
Omniscient Device, and the trademark on GOD (tm). GOD was used to
design the amiba, but we decided it wasn't a viable product, and put
it in the public domain.						:-)

	Hmmmm.  I don't suppose anyone would like to start a bioengineering
firm called.....

	Genetic Organism Designs?

	Rather an apropos acronym, don't you think?
