home entertainment experience. The RCA Digital High-Definition Monitor lives
up to this commitment by offering outstanding picture performance and multiple
connectivity options. This is the perfect vehicle to help you make the transition
into the world of HDTV. The RCA Digital High-Definition Monitor can display

watts of concentrated picture power which delivers an incredibly lifelike picture.

example) allowing for maximum
horizontal lines of resolution to
be displayed.
