[comp.sys.ibm.pc.hardware] Seiko 1440/Orchid Pro II

fmb@cbnewsc.att.com (fernando.m.botelho) (02/14/91)

1. Does anyone have any experience with the following mail order firm:

	Argo	Reno, Nevada   702-324-7070

   They have a decent price ($659) on a Seiko 1440/Orchid Pro II combo 
   advertised in PC Week (2/4/91) and Computer Shopper (2/91)

2. Does anyone have any positive or negative experience with the
   Orchid Pro II VGA card and the Seiko 1440 monitor.  I've called
   Orchid and they say the combination is fine, but I would like to
   double check. 

Thanks in advance,

Fernando Botelho

I don't know about the PD2, but I have a PD+ that I use with the 1440
and when using Windows 3 or vpic in 800x600 the display is
objectionable in that it seems to have a problem with scan line
pairing.

Has anyone else seen this?
