TOPIC



    Why doesn't the Macintosh IIvx support monitors larger than 14 inches?

DISCUSSION


    The Macintosh IIvx (Performa 600) has internal video support for the 12-inch,
    13-inch, 14-inch, and VGA (Video Graphics Array) displays. However, the
    internal video doesn't support monitors greater than 14 inches.

    Macintosh IIvx video logic is based on the Macintosh LC II. Time to
    market urgency made major alterations of the Macintosh LC ASIC
    impossible.

    Customers must purchase an appropriate NuBus Card such as the Macintosh
    Display Card 8*24 to drive their larger monitors.

    Article Change History:
    07/12/93 - Revised to include 14-inch color displays, and Performa 600.
