I have the above monitor (Apple Trinitron ) connected to a G3 300 with
512 MB RAM.  Yesterday it started having an intermittent problem with a
slight narrowing of the image in the mid screen region ( sort of an hour
glass or waist band effect ) with the constriction of the image leaving
a wider black margin along the side edges up to one half inch in width,
but with essentially no distortion of color or crispness of image.  The
resolution is at 800 X 600, 75 MHz.  This monitor has automatic
degaussing on start up, and when I did a restart it went away,  but
later was noted again.  I don't know if the restart was the cure.  I
don't know of any magnetic sources in the area to account for
"gaussing".  I ran Disk Warrior and TechTool Pro with no problems
identified.  FWIW

Any suggestions?  Is the monitor dying?  I got it new in 1998.
