- All right, enough about detachable keyboards...
- What I want to know is if you have to buy a new
- monitor for the A1200 to use the new graphics
- modes, whatever they are...
-
- I've a choice of spending $1100 to upgrade
- my A500 with the GVP 530 Turbo with 120 MB HD
- or waiting to see what the A1200 comes out with
- (hd, ram, price). If I have to buy a new monitor
- it'll definitely swing me towards the GVP.
- I'm also not into rendering or 3D graphics and all
- that fancy smancy morphing. So graphic resolution
- is not an issue with me. I'm into word processing,
- databases, spreadsheets, and maybe scenery (after
- I get the accelerator) and maybe cheap video editing
- like using Video Director and video clip art of the
- DPaint resolution. So is it really important to
- get the AGA chip set for what I want to do? My
- husband says to get the GVP, but my coworker said
- to wait for the A1200.
