</div>Well, the message with the attachment _did_ bounce and<br>
reminded me the size limit here is 40kB, but James<br>
salvaged it from the moderator queue for us. (thanks!)<br>

</div>... though I'm realizing a little better explanation<br>
of what that PDF contains might be called for:<br>
<br>
The "direct-view-xref" PDF is very comprehensive 18<br>
page spread sheet of essential specs for most all of the<br>
CRT and LCD monitor models that were manufactured from<br>
(guesstimating) ~1995 to as recently as ~2003. There<br>
are over a thousand models listed, all grouped by<br>
manufacturer.<br>
<br>
About the only helpful data that isn't provided is<br>
dates of manufacture; my 2003 guesstimate for the<br>
most recent model information is based on the fact<br>
that the listed LCD panel sizes basically max out<br>
at 18 inches with no "wide screen" types noted.<br>
<br>
Would love to find an updated version of this list,<br>
but I can't even connect with where I got this one<br>
in first place. It does seem that Extron has a<br>
similarly useful, comprehensive and more up to date<br>
monitor data base on line:<br>
<br>
<<a href="http://www.extron.com/company/article.aspx?id=tt102001" target="_blank">http://www.extron.com/company/article.aspx?id=tt102001</a>><br>
<br>
... but the page also states that they limit access to<br>
the search tool page to their dealers and consultants.<br>
<br>
Bummer.<br>
