I wasn't too thrilled with the image quality of a VT525 on an LCD panel the
last time I tried it. Bad enough that I thought I should keep a CRT around
to use with it. I'll have to try it again and take a look. I don't
remember it being dim. More of a scaling artifact issue if I remember
correctly. I
I don't have a VT525 but I did try a newish LCD panel on an Alphaserver 1000A
with a Trio S3 VGA graphics card.
The results were very poor with stationary vertical corrugations and difficult
to read text.
I found a tweakable control on the LCD setup menu - I can't remember what it
was called and can't check now - maybe it was "clock rate" or something
like
that. Whatever it was, adjusting it made a great improvement to the display.
