Re: LCD that "plays well" with IBM 3489 or Affirmative Yestation?

Does anybody know of an LCD monitor that plays well with either a 3489, or a twinax Yestation?

I've tried every model of LCD that's been in the building. Most of them look awful, usually to the point of unreadability. The others don't work at all.

Anybody find one that works well?

I haven't found one that doesn't work well -- not that I've searched. My current 3489 monitor is a cheapo OmniTech F15J. Previously, I used another cheapo SYS GC150ATA. (You might have to do some searching to learn how cheap they were.) Those are just refurb throwaways from TigerDirect that I bought somewhere over five years ago and had lying around as extras.

IIRC, the challenge is in the monitor settings such as refresh rates. If you figure out how to configure the monitor to match the 3489 requirements, things just start working.
