- Hello,
-
- I just got rid of my IIsi and am looking to purchase either a PB160
- or a IIci desktop system. I wanted to find out how users of the PB160
- felt about the usefulness of the video out port of the computer. When
- I use the 160 at home I want to be able to use a 13 inch monitor. This
- is important (which is why I am also considering a IIci). Does the PB160
- connection to a 13 inch monitor make is as good a computer as a IIci...
- I mean is your desk all cluttered up because there is a computer screen
- in the way (the 160's LCD screen in front of the 13 monitor). Also
- how good is that LCD screen in outdoor situations in sunlight and all?
-
- Thanks a lot. I just cannot seem to decide between a IIci and a PB160.
- I don't want to end up purchasing a 160 and finding out that the video
- out port that I paid for is useless because it is cumbersome to connect
- a monitor to it each time.
