   I've been asked to recommend the best (pseudo-best?) color monitor
and accelerator for a MacIIfx.  The color monitors we are looking at right
now are (listed in random order):

      1) E-machines T-16
      2) E-machines TX
      3) RasterOps 708
      4) Radius Color Display

   The main goal is to have something large with good brightness and
contrast, plus easy to read.  I have no idea about which accelerator color
card would be the best.
   Please send your opinions and experiences with these displays and
cards, and I will forward your responses.  Information like reliability,
support, and ease of installation would also be helpful.
   Since we don't get requests like this every day ;-) I am not able to
make an informed decision at this point.  If there is enough interest, I
will summarize the responses.  Thanks.
