Unfortunately, it won't save you a heck of a lot of money over a 240, as you will have to replace the tubes with higher-persistence/resolution CRT's (just the tubes) in orser to see the pictures you display very well. | Terry Lambert UUCP: ...{ decvax, ihnp4 } ...utah-cs!century!terry | | @ Century Software OR: ...utah-cs!uplherc!sp7040!obie!wsccs!terry | | SLC, Utah | | These opinions are not my companies, but if you find them | | useful, send a $20.00 donation to Brisbane Australia... | | 'Admit it!
