We now have a Planar system, which works very nicely with coot, O ,
ccp4mg etc. Rather expensive though

These "new" TFT monitors do seem like a really good idea, but, it is
well worth doing in depth research as most of the accessible (Cheap)
ones designed for gaming currently only operate with directX. As I
understand it there are plans to make these work with openGL as well
as
directX so they should work with programs like coot etc. Just be
careful
and confirm with the people supplying the TFT that it will work with
your software package of choice.
P.S. a colleague of mine who is interested in tomography suggested the
planar TFTs work well (they are also very expensive and bulky) - but
be
sure to confirm they work with your software of choice before paying
for
one

Hello all,
There is a new company around that makes a 3D capable 22 inch flat
screen LCD monitor (http://www.iz3d.com) capable of a maximum
resolution of 1680x1050. It is originally designed for the purpose
of
playing video games in 3D, but looks promising for ridding ourselves
of the huge bulky CRTs.
Cheers

Subject: [ccp4bb] 3D model building without CRT monitor
Dear all,
recently some of our CRT monitors broke down and we realized
that these
monitors are no longer produced. However, we would still like
to
continue model building in 3D which is apparently not possible
with
current TFT displays. Beside the possibility of getting old
CRT monitors
at ebay, I was wondering how other groups solved this problem.
Thank you very much for suggestions!
best wishes,
Tobias
