My wife's interlaced monitor is a -SVGA- monitor (if that make's any
difference) and I do not yet have a Second Sight card. Actually, that's
the reason for the questions. If I can successfully use her monitor (she
has already given the OK) I will buy a Second Sight card and use a
switch box between the two systems. However, if this monitor won't work
properly, I won't buy a card - period.

Since I have had exposure to this SVGA monitor, I can't stand the IIGS
RBG display. And although it seems unlikely that anything more will be
developed for Second Sight, it would be worth it to me just to get rid
of the black lines and have a bright, clear display on GS/OS desktop and
AppleWorks Classic.
