The 1600SW is a widescreen flat panel video monitor from Silicon Graphics introduced in 1998. It won many awards after release and sold 54,000 units. It is notable for longevity, with used models still actively traded on eBay a decade later, despite the difficulty of adapting the monitor to run with modern video cards, due to the 1600SW's OpenLDI video interface. Formac sold the same monitor bundled with its own OpenLDI graphics adapter as Formac ProNitron 18/500. Radius sold the monitor as the Artica which differed mainly in having a translucent white case and a conventional mount. SGI sold the monitor primarily under Model #AM173Y01. The 1600SW was revolutionary for its time, featuring a 17.3 inch diagonal wide screen panel in a market then dominated by CRT monitors. The 1600SW had a 16:10 aspect ratio (referred to by SGI as SuperWide) with a resolution of 1600 x 1024 pixels. The refresh rate was 60 Hz in 24-bit color and 110 dpi (which makes for a smaller dot pitch than most competitive monitors). The 1600SW shared the same styling motif as the SGI Visual Workstation 320, 540 and O2, with a unique (and troublesome) off-center mount. The display won a dozen international awards and despite its age, it still compares well to modern displays produced a decade later. At introduction the 1600SW cost in the neighborhood of $2500.〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=http://www.sgi.com/products/legacy/displays.html )〕 ==List of Video Cards with a 1600SW (OpenLDI) connector== * Formac ProFormance 3 (special version with OpenLDI; PCI bus) * Number Nine Revolution IV-FP (Revolution IV with OpenLDI; AGP or PCI bus) * 3D Labs Oxygen VX1-1600SW (AGP or PCI bus) * Siemens Nixdorf S26361-D964-A11GS-7 (PCI bus) 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「SGI 1600SW」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
