Monitors

 Well this seems to be my time for monitors. I just picked up a Taxan Multi
Vision 770 Plus for $1.00 and an Atari Hi-res SM124 for $5. Last week I
got a NEC Multisync JC1401P3A and Compaq VGA mono curbside, and
acquired a Mac+ adapter for an earlier find, a Radius 15RAM1 Full page
Display. Both Multisyncs have analogue<> TTL and mono-color switches
and the Taxan has an overscan switch as well as a bunch of other controls. My
main monitors have been a Nec Multi 2A for most of my VGA machines and a
Commodore 1802 for my 8bits, not to mention my trusty Atari monitors with
the bloody 13 pin connectors. I feel innundated :^))

 Unfortunately I know little about monitors. Is there a good source for info on
older monitors on the net or a newsgroup FAQ ? Is there a definitive textbook ?
I have one, "PC&PS/2 Video Systems" by Richard Wilton but it deals mainly
with software programming issues.

  BTW there was also 6 DEC Rainbow A and A+ in the same thrift for $1 each.
No K-B or Monitors. I debated it with myself but have a RB 100B and a spare
100A and I'm already at minimal space, so I passed. They also had 2 Epson
Equity's which I know ziltch about.
