>http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/DVI
to study up a bit on the DVI-LCD combo and indeed read that "computers with
DVI video connectors can use many DVI-equipped HDTV sets as display." It
also said that "the vast majority [of LCD screens] are no longer just for
TV and HDTV (DVB). They can also be used as a computer monitor with a VGA/DVI
signal, although resolution support can vary widely." My concern is "support."
I thought, perhaps mistakenly, that no matter what display you use, you have
to have some software (delivered via CD) to coordinate the computer output
with the display. I've also assumed that that support comes with the display.
Did the Olevia come with software specifically designed to work with an Apple
computer? Regardless of the answer to that question, do you feel that the
Olevia is producing a high-quality image? In addition, to working in Paris
I do a lot of writing, so the display's ability to produce crisp, clear text
(which I've been told is the real test of a display) is very important to
me. Does the Olevia pass that test? Also, is it your opinion that the Olevia
is better than most other LCD screens, or are they all roughly equivalent?
Sorry for asking so many questions. Many thanks!

say that Paris will run fine with either Athlons or Pentiums. On the mobo
questions, you might do a search of the newsgroup to see what other's have
used with success. I've been using the Asus A7S333. Its a stable board,
but picky about it's ram.

I figured many people around here havn;t heard that stuff which
engineering wise is so ahead of it's time. Sounds like some room micing on
the drums too.
Phil, I gotta talk to you about a Hammond session give me a call if you got
time.
