    The display they come with are crap , but I have had the 16 bit ISA version running a number of diffrent lcd's. You have to modify the bios (eprom programmer and eraser needed) and the card.

    You only have to do that to use other lcds with the card

    it's been discussed at length.

    Simply put if it had a low contrast ratio, brighter backlights will just wash out all the color. You end up with a bright LCD you can't see anything on. The other option? Leave it alone and have a dark LCD you can see nothing on.

    it has adjustable brightness controllers. I'll say it again, this is the best STN lcd monitor (but it's nothing like TFT). I use it for my carputer. The base and neck are also easy to remove. I've never had a brightness problem. But i keep it next to my arm rest. The only regret is the screen is too big. And you cannot use any other video card, it doesn't use VGA cables, it uses MDR-32. Nor does it use a VGA signal, it uses OpenLDI. Read my posts on the links below. I'm not getting into that again.

    Check out all the research i did, and my review on this monitor

    The reason its the best STN monitor because it uses OpenLDI instead of VGA. But the 4 meg pci card limits it abilities. There's 2 other cards out there that support OpenLDI, there well over $600

    If you really have doubts goto
    www.mp3playerstore.com

    They gaurantee the lowest prices on lcds. Also gives specials to Paypal customers
