- There has been much discussion that for the Performa line, the 14" Sony
- Trinitron monitor is superior to the Performa Plus monitor. The Performa
- Plus runs about $400, and the Sony CPD-1304 can be obtained from a
- mail-order house for about $600.
-
- Is it worth the 50% premium for the Sony? Has anyone actually seen one
- side by side? Most of what I've read on the net has been recitation of
- reviews from Macworld or Macuser. And there has been some confusion as
- well... some have said that the CPD-1320 is the monitor for the Performa,
- when it seems that it is for the LC and LC II only.
-
- So what's the scoop?
