SuperMac is selling an Ikegami monitor, and a Sony monitor, but the Sony is actually the THIRD monitor they've sold. The Ikegami replaced an earlier tube (whose name escapes me at the minute), although the swap was not widely publicized. Apparently the Ikegami is better, but I don't know who has the earlier tube, other than developers who bought in early. (Not Palomar! It was tough enough buying the Mac II's...) -- Joel West (c/o UCSD) Palomar Software, Inc., P.O.
