[comp.sys.ibm.pc.hardware] 16" monitors--help wanted

tseng@janus.Berkeley.EDU (Ho-Ping Tseng) (07/26/90)

Pardon me if this has been discussed recently.

I'm looking for a 16" monitor, but I haven't been able to
test them effectively at the local stores.  The primary candidates
are:  Nanao 9070U, NEC 4D, and Mitsubishi 6605.  If anyone has had
good or bad experiences with them, please share them with me.  I know 4D
has received good reviews lately, but the one I saw was not all that
impressive.  I also heard from someone that their quality control is
not all that good.  In addition, there seems to be a shortage of it.

The best prices for these locally are:
	9070U -- $1019
	4D -- $1150
	6605 -- $1099.
Are these in line with other places?  Any chance these would drop?

Based on the price and what I saw, I think I'm leaning toward the 9070U.
The 6605 can do 1280x1024.  Would that be effective on a 16" screen?

Any help would be appreciated.

BTW.  Has anyone had any problem with Genoa 6400?  I'm choosing between
it and Orchid ProDesigner+.
