General Digital has redesigned the 19″ rack mount sleeve unit for the SlimLine Lite II™ Series of rugged flip-up LCD monitor / keyboard / trackball, including the sunlight readable models. One unit is designed for use with the 15″ model, the other is for use with the 17″, 19″, and 20″ models (the only difference being the length of the slides).
