Summary
19" PC monitor with a unique "short depth" design. This model uses a 100 degree deflection tube, which allows it to be noticeably shorter than most PC monitors. Capable of a 97 kHz horizontal scan rate.
Literature
Notes
While it does create a noticeably more compact monitor, the 100 degree tube does affect picture quality. Dot pitch is slightly coarser at the corners than in the center, and horizontal linearity is noticeably worse than most curved PC monitors.
Unlike most monitors in its size & price range, this model has a focus adjustment option in the user menu.
This monitor does not have a service menu or internal adjustment pots. Calibration and service adjustments are done via PC software (which does not appear to be available).
