- Hi,
- I have an AS3000 with a NEC 4FG monitor here and I have absolutely no border
- at all, this is because the monitor has some electronics that lets you stretch the
- immage on the screen to a certain extend. This is enough fo the Amiga not to have
- the black border, but under mac emulation I still get a tiny bit of border on the
- right and left side of the finder.
- I hope that makes your decision a bit easier.
-
- Arthur.
