it seems OK and SNBC's contention is that these are grade A panels, made for name brand manus (seems like a likely sales pitch) lists on SNBC for $1299

Are these specifications appropriate for veiwing four tables w/ no overlap?

You'll need a monitor capable of doing 1600x1200 resolution if you want to 4-table without overlap.
