I fully understand why the industry is switching to LCDs, power consumption, lead-free, weight during shipping, definition, yada yada... I just want to know why an LCD company hasn't picked up on the idea that there are whole industries out there that need a 4:3 form-factor? There should be at least one manufacturer that makes large 29" 4:3 LCDs for drop-in replacements, in fact they should offer all established CRT sizes in bare LCDs. There are companies out there that sell just about everything you can think of, except large 4:3 LCDs. 16:9 are swell for watching movies, but there are places where a 4:3 makes more sense, and would be a better fit from a design point of view, aircraft for one, wooden arcade cabinets for a second, anything with a complicated control panel that has monitors stuck in it. Why is there not one manufacture that is a one-stop shop for all kinds of crazy exotic sized LCDs (I don't mean cut ones)? I'm talking 1:1, 4:1, and yes, even 4:3. :dunno Side note, does anyone have a complete list of games that do not work with hlsl, ie. the taito 3d ones. I'm currently having to create separate .inis without scanlines by hand as I find them? I am using 0.145. |
