[Duo2400] Re: Duo LCD to flat screen monitor?

[Robert R. Daniel]

Many thanks (molti ringraziamenti) to Impmon and to Sergio.  I may
well screw up my courage (or my foolhardiness) to the point that I
will actually  attempt the construction of an LCD monitor from a
Duo screen.

When/If I do, I'll let you know how it turns out.

Best,

Robert
