What is the exact name of the "Apple color Mac monitor" mentioned above?
I saw in a Mac book a refference to an "Applecolor RGB Monitor" being
used in conjunction with a Macintosh, and thought it was the same thing
that is hooked up to my IIGS. Just curious about the issue, since my
IIGS's monitor's manual has "AppleColor RGB Monitor" in the title. I am
not looking for a technical explination of the differences, just the
full name of the Mac monitor vs the IIGS monitor. I've seen the
explination before, but never thought about asking.
