MONO TURNS UP TRUMPS

As programs such as Tasword Two require good definition to give more than 32 characters across the screen, many users are turning to black and white monitors for a readable display. A special interface is not required for such monitors and they are a low cost alternative to RGB for the QL.

The Boxer 12 from Hantrex is a 12in high resolution, green screen, compo site video monitor designed for the home computer user.

The usual controls - brightness, contrast, on/off - are on the front, while others, such as picture size and position, are hidden under a flap, also on the front. It has an attractive silver grey casing.

The Boxer 12 costs £99.95 from Hantrex (UK) Ltd, Unit 2, Lower Sydenham Trading Estate, Kangley Bridge Road, London SE26 5BA. Tel: 01-778 1414.
