[THIN] Re: Terminals better than Wyse for 18.1" LCDs?


It is a limitation of the WYSE unit. Other models/brand will have much
better graphics performance. The ICA client itself works great at 1280
resolution, it needs good support on the local device to stay crisp and
clean. Also, be aware the the highest resolution on some devices drops =
down
to low refresh rates and sometimes even lower color depth. A good rule =
of
thumb is to choose a device with a max resolution higher than you want =
to
use, i.e. a device that supports 1600 at 75 hz and full color would be a
good choice to run at 1280...

Subject: [THIN] Terminals better than Wyse for 18.1" LCDs?



First off, I'm new so sorry if this has been discussed in the past.  I
searched the archives, but didn't find anything.

I've got a limited deployment of Winterm 1200LE (blazers?), namely two
units.  Moving users from PCs to winterms, and using the Citrix server =
with
SunRays in addition to winterms.  We use 18.1" LCDs at 1280x1024 @ 60 Hz
(currently testing 75Hz too)

The problem we've run into is that the display is noticable less crisp =
(ie
fuzzy) and the color isn't as good as the old PCs with Matrox G200s.  =
I'm
going to do a side by side test of a PC with the ICA client and the Wyse
winterm, but I'm wondering if anyone had seen a siliar issue.  Its =
almost
like the graphics chipset in the 1200LEs (supposedly a trident, and its =
used
in *ALL* wyse terms) isn't meant for 1280x1024 on an LCD.

Any thoughts/suggestions?  Terminal manufacturers with better chipsets, =
or
is this an ICA issue?  (I highly doubt it because using the ICA client =
on a
SunRay produces sharp text. . .)

(by fuzzy I mean the text is fuzzier than a G200 equipped PC running =
Windows
2000 pro.

Thanks!
