    Hans G 281 DPB and Windows XP

    I see that this Hans G 281 DPB has drivers for Vista but not XP - some reviews mention this as well.  Does anyone know if it will work with XP and if so what functionality it has that I would lose due to lack of XP driver support?

    Most likely it will work with XP. Some monitors do need drivers for vista in order to work correctly is all that is why you will see Windows Vista certified on some.

    Thanks,

     

    Does anyone know if this has PIP or PBP?  Or if the new 289 has PIP/PBP? Its not called out on the product description or manufacturer's page but it's hard to imagine a 28" monitor that doesn't have this capability - and I've seen it in reviews for other monitors that also didn't show it in product descriptions.
