    The AppleColor RGB is not Macintosh compatible because of its NTSC
scanning frequency. The only (rare) exception to this is if it is used
with the 'Apple High Resolution Display Video Card' in a NuBus slotted
Macintosh. Even if you have that video board I wouldn't recommend it,
you won't be able to put up with the interlacing, low dot-pitch and 
60 Hz refresh rate (that all equals a blurry and flickering display).
