Posted by Intensify on 5, 2000 at 12:11 PM:

I read a post below where someone was asking about the D9200. I just went to the website and checked it out.. and it seems like it would be ideal for a large cabinet for a relatively low price. It takes a VGA input signal w/ a max res of 640x480, however, that should be sufficient for a cabinet (especially at 27"!!!), and you can definitely run windows at that resolution (although I'd suggest using a shell replacement like Litestep or DesktopX so you can shrink down all the windows stuff). :)

Has anyone bought one of these or has anyone compared specs and had an opinion, because I am reviving my arcade project "BARCADE!" within the next week or so, and would love to get a large 4-player cab, but would also need to run windows at SOME point, and I'm not too keen on having to create settings in advanceMAME for EVERY game I want to play with the included monitor (if it even works at all).

I provided a link below to the monitor information. Any feedback would be GREATLY appreciated.

Thanks in Advance!
