Sounds like you have the big brother of mine, which runs 1024x768 quite
nicely, though I never use it. 800 x 600 is plenty for these old eyes. My
point was that you shouldn't assume that since you use a 15" CRT you need a
15" LCD -- in fact the viewing area is closer to a 17" CRT.
It's interesting that MAG is now the same company as Proview, whose LCD
displays are often among the cheapest around. Putting the MAG name on this
one was worth $10 over the Proview equivalent on TigerDirect.
