[comp.sys.amiga.hardware] SUN Monitors

Is it possible to attatch a 19" mono SUN monitor to an Amiga 3000?
BTW, I think that I'm the only person out here who likes his 1950...

I LIKE my 1950, I don't see what all the screaming is about.  The other
monitors I've tried (an IBM ps/2 monitor, and a multisync) don't produce
as nice an image, and have a border you can't get rid of.  For the price
range I think the 1950 is definitly a good monitor.

Now was that civilized?  No, clearly not.  Fun, but in no sense civilized.

O.K.  I see what all the screaming is about, Admittidly I didn't look at
things like dot-pitch, and convergance, and size stability (this one I have
noticed with the 1950).  However my 1950 has served MY needs quite well.

I have seen several other monitors mentioned but without prices mentioned,
or whether they support overscan correctly or not.  The overscan issue is
VERY important with me.  I never really looked at other monitors because
I purchased an educational 3000 system, which includes the 1950, but I've
also never regretted the 1950 from a user standpoint either.  The multisync
and the PS/2 monitor I looked at were scrounged from a computer lab to
use temporarily since 1950s were backordered at the time, neither monitor
matched the 1950 from a "pleasant to my eyes" standpoint.  The IBM
monitor produced crisper colors, but it also lost approx. a 1/3 of its usable
display space to an impossible-to-get-rid-of border.

Please, if you didn't try the Sony monitors, you didn't see anything. Sony
monitors are now the mandatory display for all unix worstations. And they are at
the same price as inferior monitors such as NEC4d ones...
Even Sun has now sony monitors (with DEC, Mips, HP, and ... Sony)
