Video Display

The built-in video display uses a 15-inch CRT (13.8-inch viewable diagonal). The CRT uses shadow-mask technology and has a dot pitch of 0.28 mm. The display is multi-scan and supports three resolutions. Table 3-2 lists the resolutions and the pixel depths supported with either the standard 2 MB of SGRAM or with expanded SGRAM.
