Re: new question- converting monitors from Vertical to Horizontal is it possible?

And remember, when using a degaussing coil it's a good idea to leave
your wallet in another room. Unless you're real careful or lucky you
might erase the stripe on your bank and credit cards with the degaussing

multiple tubes a night at my Real Job---and those were the monitors that
drew BOTH vector and raster data on the same screen).
