Does sony make a monitor that will not flicker in the higher res. modes? The best solution is to get a card that runs the screen at about 60 Hz or better refresh rate. The 1302 and 1303 monitors will handle that with ease. To do so requires an oscillator on the card of 37 MHz or higher (the STB VGA Extra/EM cheats a little by using 36.5 MHz, and it looks pretty good). > 2.

The Multisync GS seems to have spawned several imitators (even though its sales figures seem to have been disappointing to NEC) and I believe some are in the 16 to 20 inch range. I don't know for sure though. Charles Marslett chasm@attctc.dallas.tx.us
