[TechAssist] Re: Proview LCD 17" monitor PRO758, model 780 many resolutions "not supported"?]

Ahh...
All is NOT better with these Non-crt  monitors as the mfgrs would like 
us to think.
Except for space, give me a CRT display anytime.
I know the graphics (ads,art)dept of the local news paper I do some work 
for(no, not a paper route ;-0) only uses 21" CRTs. They rejected LCDs 
there. The LCD's are given to the billing dept,as it doesn't matter 
there. Think they have Viewsonics in the art dept.
You know, it may come to the point where on the older PCs that otherwise 
run good, the newer LCDs may just not display at all. Another plan to 
"off" the older technology. Save some CRT units!
