What I suspect you are seeing, Chuck, is what Bill Pearce has alluded to - I
guess that you have a flat screen CRT, showing increasing optical distortion
as the beam gets further from the optical axis. If you had a hemispherical
screen, there would be no distortion at all, and the flatter the screen, so
the worse the distortion. (should that be "more worser"?) And it's less
noticeable on the vertical axis because the screen is wider than it is tall.
Or am I being too simplistic?

Subject: [OM] [OT] Help with monitor problem
--snip
I just went to examine the monitor on my wife's computer (even cheaper stuff
than my cheap stuff) and see that the horizontal size problem is there as
well and even more exaggerated. The vertical size, however, is consistent
from top to bottom.
What am I seeing? Are these typical problems with cheap monitors?
Drift with age? Are the display adapters at fault? What do I need to do to
fix it?
Thanks. Any advice will be greatly appreciated.
