- The Fimi sucks; it's an embarrassment to NeXT. The new Sony
- is so much better it's not even funny. We previously refused
- to purchase color NeXT systems without 3rd party displays
- (Nanao T560i). In the future we won't hesitate to order
- the NeXT/Sony 17" display.

- I think it's better than the 21" display (hitachi?), but
- some people prefer the larger pixel size. Note that the
- viewing area does not increase since NeXT doesn't seem to
- support 1280x1024 or larger displays, yet another curious
- hardware decision in NeXT's history.
