Dave, I feel your pain. I have to wear multifocals. Top set for distance,
middle set to 18" for my computer screen, bottom set for "the distance from
my chin to an airline traytable" I forget what this measurement is but I
actually measured it with a tape before I got these glasses (much to the
consternation of passengers sitting nearby) -- I do a lot of reading on
planes. :-)

Speaking of screens. Everybody now-a-days is after the "biggest" screen for
the $ you can get. I'd like to know what folks here have found in terms of
small screens. I'm doing a DRO conversion and I'd like a small footprint
screen I can mount on the wall over my mill. What kinds of small flat panels
can you plug right into a video card on a PC? Resolution isn't that critical
as the DRO software generates large numbers anyway.
