SUMMARY

The following large-screen monitors have been tested for compatibility with Microsoft Word versions 3.0x, 4.0, and 5.0 by Microsoft and by the companies themselves:

  • The Mega Screen by MicroGraphics Images
  • The Big Picture by E-machines, Inc.
  • Radius Full Page Display
  • Radius Pivot
  • Radius Color Pivot
  • Ehman Full Page Display

Manufacturers of these monitors can be contacted at the following numbers: 

   Ehman      (307) 789-3830
   Radius     (408) 434-1010
   RasterOps  (408) 562-4200 or Customer Services at (800)-729-2656
The only known compatibility problems with Microsoft Word are that Word does not support "tear-off" menus (menus in a large-screen monitor that allow pull-down menus to appear anywhere on the screen, not just extended from the menu bar).
