- of Mitsubishi Electronics America, Inc. today announced the new Diamond
- Scan 16 with more features, but a lower suggested retail price.
-
- The new Diamond Scan 16 features a compact enclosure, on-screen color
- calibration and faster autoscanning mode changes.
-

- space to show other application windows in the background.
-
- The Diamond Scan 16 has a 0.28 mm dot pitch 16-inch (diagonal) CRT. The
- monitor's enclosure has a footprint that is similar in size to traditional
- 14-inch monitors, but offers 42 percent more display area.

- The monitor features the Diamond Match Color Calibration System, which
- permits the custom control of on-screen colors to match hardcopy, Pantone
- colors, or other user-defined standards.
-
- The Diamond Scan 16 has a wide autoscan range, with 30 to 64 kilohertz
- (kHz) horizontal and 50 to 130 Hz vertical frequency range. It runs all
- resolutions between 640 x 480 (Mac II and VGA) through 1280 x 1024 at 60
- Hz non-interlaced, making it compatible with all PC, Apple Macintosh II
- and Quadra standards, and most third-party graphics board standards.
-
- All controls are microprocessor-driven, icon-based buttons on the front
- panel. The monitor's low magnetic emission design complies with all North
- American and most international standards. The monitor comes with an
- integrated tilt/swivel base and includes a VGA-compatible signal cable.
-
- Suggested retail price for the monitor is $1,299, down $200 from the
