Hi, up until recently I did not pay as much attention to this group
as I might have but then up till now I really did not have a
reason.
My opthamologist has told me that I am slowly loosing my visual
acuity and ability to resolve small differences i.e. characters!
He has suggested that to reduce the strain on my eyes that I move
from my current platform (Zenith AT using CGA on a mono monitor) to
as large a monitor as possible with as much resolution as possible
and color. Don't you wish you had a doctor like this.:-)
Unfortunately, the rather unscientific testing that I have done has
led me to the unmistakable conclusion that things don't get better
until I get into the 1024 by 768 range or better.
Does anyone know of a monitor/card combination that would give me
at least 1024 by 768 in color (16 will do but 256 is better) for
the IBM DOS world. I run mostly regular DOS type software like
Lotus products, WordPerfect, etc. I also run Windows/286 and
Ventura. The only other program ;that is somewhat special is
CADKEY 3.
Please send email if you have any info.
