According to the Happ website:

it will do 15kHz.

NoBullMAME said the hi-res Makvision. That one will not sync to 15khz.
The tri-sync you found is most likely analog. That means it doesn't remember picture settings between resolutions.

Yes, you are right. Those are the only options it seems--a tri-sync that doesn't have memory and requires readjustment for each rate or digital monitor that is simply VGA/SVGA.
If I choose to get the digital how does it look on the lower resolution older games? It seems that everyone recommends running native for the best look.
What would you say is best as a compromise?

I bought one of Rick's 25" displays two years ago. Since I live in Texas, he referred me to one of his distributors in Arizona. It's still working great, and received great service from Rick and his distributor, Larry Rosenthal.

PS I have sent an email to Niemen to see if they are still producing CRTs as this is the only other company I have seen besides the Makvision.

No, they are not.

They sell either MakVision or Wei Ya. I don't recall which, but both good brands.

Somewhat expensive, and I've seen cheaper on ebay recently, but this may be a good source.
