Re: 1290 versus 1280 driver

2004-05-03 by Gareth

Paul will probably pipe up but I ran some tests for him using UT2 on 
a 1290 with 1290 and 1280 drivers and there was no appreciable 
difference between the 2 - his words not mine, as I only have the Mk1 
eyeball and I couldn't tell any difference!

I presume you are in the UK Bernie.  Drop me a line via my website, 
might have some chatting to do about UT2.
