Link MC5: Designed to Keep Functionality High, Overall Costs Low.
The Link MC5 is the most advanced "multiple concept" display terminal and has some very visible differences. It offers high performance, plus ergonomics that are easy on the eyes. At a price that's very easy on the budget. The Link MC5's improved features includes a flat profile screen to reduce glare, overscanned video to eliminate distracting dark borders, extra fast 78 Hz refresh rate to eliminate screen flicker, contrast and brightness controls located on the front panel for easy access: Ergonomics with a clear difference.
