No dude, the 100 is the digital RGB that Apple came out with in '85 or so. It
requires the extended 80 column/RGB card or a RAMworks RGB add on for a //e,
has the electric screen tilter, and came complete with a $600 price tag and
$300 for the RGB interface. Consequently it, like the //c LCD screen, sold 
like used bananas. Ironically the used hardware places like Shreve list it
for less than they want for the newer composite color monitors.
