Monitor compatability with Fat Frog

[JAdamson]

To the guys at Zero 88:

I have one of the "older" model Fat Frog consoles, and have a question concerning use of newer monitors. What specs should I look for if I were to purchase a new monitor, probably a widescreen unit? For example, is there a secific "native resolution" that the FF prefers? Thanks for your assistance.

The Fat Frog outputs in VGA text mode (80x50 visible characters, 640x400 visible pixels, 70Hz frame rate) - this is the default mode used by most PC bioses. You probably won't find this information in many monitor specifications, however we've not come across any monitors that have a problem with the Frog series monitor output.

Thanks for that info Paul.
