	I think that a large paperwhite monitor would be an excellent addition
to the Amiga.  The strength of this monitor would be that it could display 700x
525 (or something like this) with ease and with no strobing or flicker.  It
also would be able to output 16 levels of grey scale for shading and anti-
aliasing (of graphics and TEXT!).  This monitor could be used as either a
replacement for (many applictaions don't "need" color) or as a supplement to
an RGB monitor.  The beauty of this method is that programs would need to 
only undergo minor alterations to take advantage of the higher resolution.
Also, all Amigas with composite output could use this monitor and an RGB
monitor simultaneous without  having to make any physical modifications to
the Amiga.
