New style monitor for amiga computers
« on: July 11, 2007, 07:30:12 PM »
A while ago it was posted here about new monitors for amiga, that can coop with 15kHz vertical sync.

Kent Modular Electronics were one of the producers who were mention.
I have been in contact with them, asking for prices on their products. In particular the 17" LCD desktop monitor.

The answer:
(be prepared)
Pricing for 19LM171A61MP/4 is approx £1575.00

That blew the air of my hopes to get a decent monitor for my amiga. But the search is still on....

Try reading the company policy...

It is not making products intended for amiga use...

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

That is why it is expensive....

well... no... not really...
And I am not going to defend their policy.
But after looking at their site, i don't really see the issue about taking money for a product that is specific designed and designed to work in almost any condition. On a boat, on a train, in an airplane... +++

If YOU were to make such a product, doing the research needed to make a quality product... That kind of work is not cheap...
All though, the price may be a bit stiff... I agree there...
