Bigshot Magnifier is fairly stable but may lead to issues when scrolling if
using a standard screen size (I for example get dizzy on a small screen - so
have a 37" Hitachi gas plasma screen which doesn't use pixel stretching to
display the image and I can therefore see a full line of magnified text).
Most gas plasmas use pixel stretching so display blurred text - the Hitachi
is the only one that doesn't but I understand that they are now difficult to
come by and are expensive - around £6k.
Kind regards
Elaine
