	I've been using a Radius Pivot display being driven in a Radius
FPD-II card. It's a black&white single-page display. I love it. The
Pivot screen is the *nicest* single-page display I have ever seen, the 
corners aren't twisted, the focus is good, and the display is uniform.
I highly recommend it. I use mine about ten to twelve hours a day
for mainly text editing.

	The old Radius FPD displays aren't as good; I'd recommend the
Pivot, though.

I hate fascist Pnews implementations which limit the .signature to 4 lines.
