Please respond via e-mail so as not to clutter this newsgroup. I'm thinking of buying a Mac II of some kind. The Mac IIci has a built-in 8-bit Video adapter whereas I'd have to buy a separate one for the Mac IIcx. I would also like to get the Mac II Video Card Expansion Kit that enables an 8-bit video card to display up to 256 colors or gray scales at once. The question is, will the Video Card Expansion Kit work with the built-in Video adapter on the IIci, or do I need to get a IIcx in order to get the 256 colors or gray scales? I'm going to use the machine for graphics mostly, and the added colors or gray scales is important to me. Thanks for you help. --Greg _____ / >=====----: "Advance to the rear!" /-------------- \_____________/
