Well, I don't suppose there are many messages which don't belong in -chat, but IMO this is one. I'm following up to -questions. I don't know that particular model. Is there a problem with it? Do you have any documentation about it? What kind of connector does it have? If it comes with a 15 pin VGA connector, it'll probably work fine in VGA mode. > Besides, I need to get rid of my 13" monitor. :) If you can't get it to display text, one alternative would be to keep the 13" monitor for text, and use the Sony for X. This would mean adding a second board, of course. I think the #9 will coexist with a cheap standard VGA. Greg
