I've not had specific experience with the 107S (which I presume are
the 17" model), but I can see absolutely no reason - with some care -
why you couldn't crank up the resolution of these monitors to 1152x864
or 1280x1024.

I have a 109S (19") on my workstation here doing 1600x1200 - clear as
a bell, nice monitor.  We also have several of the 105S (15") making
heads (though a switch box) for boxes in our server farm, and they can
easily do 1152x864 (and probably 1280x1024 but I haven't bothered to
push them this high, no point running X locally on a server... remote
X is the way to go for them).

Obtaining appropriate modeline entries for them has been no problem at
all by using the Xconfigurator utility (from both redhat 6.0 and 6.1)
to create the base config file.  The entries for the `E' series seem
to work just fine for specifying a default to off start with for the
`S' series.

Cheers
Tony
