[comp.sys.amiga.hardware] 2002 Monitor

xrtnt@amarna.gsfc.nasa.gov (Nigel Tzeng) (03/14/90)

I'm picking up a used A500...but it comes with a 2002 monitor.  What is this
monitor?  Is it better/worse than a 1084?  It is described as a hi-res 13in
color monitor.  Thanks!

The 2002 (or at least the one I had before I picked up my MultiSync) is MUCH
better than the 1084.  I've noticed that the 1084 seems to go stupid when
the brightness is high enough to see the picture in a room with the lights
on (:-)  All of the vertical lines bend etc... (I've noticed this with all
1084s).  The 2002 never did this and seem to have a finer dot pitch than the
1084 as well.
