RE: 3488 - B Terminal Box

Not sure rather to laugh, cry, or help...

So I'll do all three...

An LCD screen has a single native resolution. Any other "supported" resolutions are interpolated from
the native resolution. Often resulting in a poor quality picture.

It wouldn't surprise me for an LCD monitor to not support 640x480.

I'd say go back to a CRT.

If you really want an LCD, try using an LCD TV; which would support such a low resolution.

You can find LCD TVs with VGA connectors on them.

Subject: 3488 - B Terminal Box

Help ! Our senior programmer loves her termie. So much that we even
silver plated (painted) a keyboard for her 25th anniversary.

Her monitor is dying, so boss orders a new lcd monitor to replace it.
However, the box only outputs in 640X480 mode. Does anyone know how to
change the output resolution on this thing ?

I tried researching in IBM, but all I get are references to setting up a
printer.

Thanks,

Cyndi B.
