- I'm using the Sigma Power Portrait SCSI based monochrome portrait
- monitor with an SE/30 running System 7. The external and internal 9"
- monintors can be made one logical screen. Since I obtained the
- version 2 software upgrade, it's been trouble free, for my needs at
- least.
-
- I ordered the PP back in July and received it shortly thereafter. At
- that point, they were quite forthcoming with a list of programs known
- not to work with it. If you ask, I hope they will give you a current
- list. The version 2 software really is much better.
-
- I find the speed satisfactory and the hardware pan is cool. I use a
- full 1024x1024 desktop. I use Darkside as my screen saver (some
- modules don't work cuz I think they bypass Quickdraw). Screen snaps
- work with standard Mac FKEY and with Flashit 2.2.
-
- Anything else?
