Now that Windows 3.0 actually mostly works, I am interested in getting monitors to suite windows. Now let me first tell you, I have been spoiled by SUN monitors (?19"?). I would like to purchase similar 19" monitors for my PCs. Mostly I would be happy with monocrome, but a few color monitors would also be great. So, does anyone have any experience or have any suggestions to this. I would not only need the 19" monitors, but a video card that can drive it and drivers for windows! I would appreciate any help or suggestions.

I'm using it for document display... not cad or graphics. You lose a lot with monochrome but its ok for document display. Sigma just recently released a beta version of their Win3 driver which doesn't work in 386 enhanced mode very well... no non-windows apps but otherwise seems ok so far. The font sizes aren't quite right yet since icons get stuck too close together when windows adjusts the icons. I've also used an IBM 8514 with Win3 and for all around use that might be a good way to go. Resolution is not bad and it really works, not just sort of. --hjp -- Hardy J.
