I'll keep this short. I understand that ST monitors come in two flavors - color and monochrome. Monochrome has high resolution (good text, but can't run anything written for the color monitor), and that color has medium (?) resolution (garbage text - no offense intended. Has impressive color graphics). I'd REALLY hate to have two monitors sitting on my desk. In other words, I want a monitor that can handle BOTH color and monochrome capabilities with a switch to select one of the modes. On an unrelated note, if the monitor can also accept TV/VCR signals, that would be nice too :-). I heard that someone on this newsgroup is very happy with a Magnavox monitor; what's the model? Any other suggestions are appreciated. /Taka Sajima sajima@watsun.cc.columbia.edu P.S. I'd also welcome any interesting tidbits, tips, horror stories, work-arounds, etc. Thanks.
