Summary: Thanks!  Still looking for a monitor, though . . .

   Well, anything that fits my needs usually sticks in my memory a bit more
than this did.  The package was white, I remember that much . . .  And it
didn't do incremental backups.  So much for that.

   I guess I'll go with Turtle . . . I need some of the Magic disks from
Current Notes, anyway.  Thanks to those who've sent me advice.  Also, on
the subject of the monochrome monitor, well, I still need one, but my
original message seems to have created the false impression that I'll trade
my color monitor for a mono . . . no, thanks.  Besides, they have these new
color monitors that seem a lot better than this one I'm using now.  Look
for the contrast and brightness knobs UNDER the screen (which seems sharper).
