Question # 1 - did you look at a 1000sx connected to the Shack's cheap RGB monitor (which is quite a bad buy) or did you look at it with the CM-11 monitor (which means you are really picky and want an NEC multisync with an EGA board - which costs as much as a 1000 :-) ). Suggestion # 1 - One thing to note is that the 1000sx video doesn't flicker when scrolling in the text mode (like some of the clones :-) ). Cheers! Tim
