@ pyrre
How on earth can they justify that amount of money for that sort of thing?
As I stated in an earlier post if you want some thing for an Amiga then be prepared to get ripped off, then act as if they are doing you a big favour.

Typical greedy b*****d companies.

Thats not the point though is it?
Its monitor that can go to 15Khz now tell me some one that the company can fully justify that amount of money?

Just because they add a few names to it like.

 Industrial
* Marine
* Process Control
* Military
* Rail
* Air
* Machine Tools
* Broadcast
* CCTV
* Digital Signage
* and in Public Information Applications.

So because its for the above, then they can put that price on it, believing that they will of course pay for it. (and yes they do)

That is pure greed and nothing else.

Its a bit like if I want to buy a hand rail for a bathroom that is 21" long and made of steel with a plastic coating, and 3 screw holes at either end, I shall pay £9.90 for it, BUT if its for a disabled person the EXACT same thing then you pay £21.95 for it.
True facts believe it or not.

Are they not doing the same sort of thing here.

They know damn well they can charge that and get it.

RIP OFF, RIP OFF, RIP OFF.

Well for the price I would like to see one for its capabilities, compared to a cheapo version.

I would imagine for the price it would be second to none.

Just been thinking about all this quality and monitors stuff.
If you buy a very very good expensive monitor, and your eyes are not that clever then even with glasses then the quality would not make that much difference on the monitor if the person`s eyes cant see as good as, say a person with 20/20 vision.
I need glasses to view my monitor and its pretty good,(well it seems that way) but if I didnt need glasses then would the display be better?
Point being its maybe not so much the quality but the persons eyes to start with. (of course quality is always good)

Like I know a person who baught a 17" Dell and the picture was indeed very good, to ME, but to HIM it was not that good at all.
