I've had two of the 14" displays in my collection. They were very, very nice looking. The screen was almost completely black when off, and the colors were very rich and bright. The VGA only resolution was a real bummer, and the main reason I got rid of them. In heindseight I wish I had kept one as I bet they're quite uncommon now. Both came attached to Zenith branded PCs.

I wouldn't have called them truly flat though, the front was flat but the inside seemed to curve in around the edges.

Sorry to bump this old thread, but I was actually thinking back to these displays yesterday and wondering if there was any info about them on this board. The blackness of the screen and richness of the color really sticks with you.
