[comp.sys.amiga] Zenith Flat Screen Monitors & Amiga

patzerk@pleiades.cps.msu.edu (Kurt E Patzer) (11/29/90)

   I was wondering if anyone has used one of Zenith's flat screen 
technology monitors on an amiga.  As I understand, you can photograph
the screen of these monitors and not have problems with bowing at the
edges of the pictures.  Are there any other monitors besides Zenith's
which are also flat?
    Any info would be appreciated.

Thanks,

  I have Zenith flatscreen monitor and it it extremely nice.  Yes, since the
monitor is flat unlike conventional monitors, there is no bowing at the edges
when photographing it.  However there is a problem that I am wondering if
anyone out there can help with.  My Zenith Flatscreen likes to change colors. 
It dims then brightens then dims and stays dim, then brightens, etc.  The
stores (where I bought it) now does the same thing.  I took it in to get fixed
but the serviceman tried and tried but couldn't fix it.  He said he rebuilt
the power supply and mentioned something about the flyback, but after a month
he just couldn't fix it.  Does anyone know of this problem and anything that
may fix it.  Thank you ahead of time for any help you may have.

Well, I have no idea what the problem is but those folks here that have
them are all experiencing the same symptoms so it's apparently not an
isolated thing.
