- Are you using an A1960 also? Perhaps this problem occurs with the A1960,
- but I can assure you that it does not with a Samsung SyncMaster 3, a

- The display on my A4000 is flawless and is much better than that of my
- A3000 using the very same monitors. I no longer have to deal with the
- half-line flicker, the sprite shattering, and the poor cold weather
- performance which plagues the A3000's display. But I am certainly glad
- that my purchase did not include an A1960 as most owners are reporting
- very poor performance from those units. Perhaps Commodore is still
- using the dreadful units manufactured by AOC...
