Correction: The IIgs can _make do_ with the IIc monitor since it has a
perfectly functional composite video output (I used that exact setup for
almost a year until I finally found an RGB monitor). You might find,
however, that GS/OS is far from comfortable on a 9" monochrome monitor...
but if you're planning on running a lot of 8-bit apps then you'll likely
find it more that adequate.
