The Xi graphic openGL tech demo does support the flat panel. Tom Watson tosiwme Wanna see a side by side of a 5x7 xterm.... home.earthlink.net The jpeg togetm.jpg below shows side by side a photo of and xterm with a 5x7 font. The SW1600 has a resolution of 1600x1024 and the Hitachi 21" monitor was operating at a resolution of 1600x1200. The 5x7 xterm on the Hitachi is a shade under 4" wide while the 5x7 xterm on the SW1600 is 3 7/8" This side by side comparison gives an idea of the incredable sharpness of the SW1600. There is a clear plastic scale shown in each photo to assist in gaging the screen shots. I've looked at 5x7 xterms on several 21" 20" and 17" monitors. Only a 21" Cornerstone operating at 1800x1400 was somewhat close in sharpness.
