[comp.sys.mac] The line on the line

Hiya,

The line that is present on the MAC High Res monitors
is due the the Trinitron technology used to produce it.

In order to get the wonderful colors they need to have
a wire that runs in just the wrong place and causes a 
line to appear.  Basically stated, the electron beam 
never updates the area where the line is.

Look on any Sony Trinitron TV and you will see the
same line.  It is nice to know that companies really care 
about the consumer.
