Machael:
Thanks a lot! That perfectly explain why my drive was like half
functioning and there was nothing on screen. But in this case, will it
break my drive or monitor?

PZ:
According to your maintenance procedures, if i have 2 apple ii and 1
monitor, and i pull and plug the video jack between the 2 machines
(while all of them are on), is this action considered proper? It will
be inconvenient for me to have to turn off monitor and apple ii
everytime i need to switch the monitor to the other machine.
