    That's probable, assuming you're trying to use a color Apple II
graphics mode; text is not colored on pre-GS Apple II machines without
a lot of work.

   Yes. Alltech Electronics carries it (see the 'Monitors' section of
http://www.allelec.com/appleii.htm) and can most likely ship it
overseas. There may be other sources for it, but I do not know of any
European dealers that carry it; such info would be appreciated for the
comp.sys.apple2 Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ) at
http://www.visi.com/~nathan/a2/faq/csa2.html (see section 10.2 for
more info on Alltech Electronics and many more dealers)
