Formac Electronic Inc., a manufacturer of performance enhancing peripherals and advanced visualization solutions, announced the Gallery 1900 OX, a new flat panel display with 19.0" viewable screen and SXGA resolution of 1,280x1,024.  The latest member of Formac's LCD line displays the identical digital information of a standard 17" SXGA LCD on a 25% larger screen area, which is beneficial for text intensive applications such as word processing, web browsers, databases and spreadsheets.  Featuring a 5:4 screen ratio, the physical screen size of the Gallery 1900 is comparable to a 20" wide-screen LCD.  The ultra-slim bezel design makes the Gallery 1900 OX ideal for dual-monitor environments often used in financial, medical, call  center, or other office applications.  To deliver a superior picture quality with vivid colors and smooth video playback, the new display incorporates Formac's proprietary ColorProof VA technology.  Unique benefits of this technology include an ultra-wide conical viewing angle and industry-leading performance for contrast ratio, brightness and pixel response.  The Gallery 1900 OX comes with a DVI or ADC interface, and is Macintosh and PC compatible.

In addition to its increased image size, the new Gallery 1900 OX incorporates Formac's proprietary ColorProof VA technology with
brightness (250 cd/m2) and contrast ratio (500:1), producing razor-sharp images with vivid colors. The display's conical viewing angle technology minimizes color-shift and eliminates  gray-scale inversion at extreme viewing angles.  Video applications will benefit from the pixel response time of 25ms, delivering smooth full-motion digital video playback, and eliminating the ghosting effect often found on flat panel displays.

Formac's Gallery 1900 OX comes with Formac's Display Connector (FDC), combining USB, power and DVI in one cable to minimize cable clutter on the desktop. The display features an integrated two-port powered USB hub at the backside for plug-and-play connections to peripherals

The design of the new Gallery 1900 OX is based on the Gallery 1740, Formac's 17.4" LCD.  Featuring the identical ultra-slim desktop footprint, the Gallery 1900 OX uses a slim-bezel design to incorporate the increased viewing area.  The new bezel design makes the Gallery 1900 OX the perfect display for dual-monitor environments.

The Formac Gallery 1900 OX is available immediately through Formac Certified Resellers and Shop Formac. The display has an estimated retail price of U.S. $799.
