Does it auto-size? One of the least-discussed requirements a VGA places on a monitor is sizing, vertically, to handle the 350 (EGA emul), 400 (double-scan CGA and text) and 480 (Vga graphics) - so that the picture fills the screen vertically at all 3 resolutions. My Magnavox 8CM873 has sadly small EGA - it occupies the middle 350 of 480 possible lines, and the height control is a small recessed pot in the back. This is NOT a good VGA monitor, therefore.
