If you get a IIe, you'll want the Apple Composite Monitor.  It has a
B/W - Color switch on it that will make text applications MUCH more
readable without having to get an RGB setup.  (RGB cards for the //e
are hard to come by)

Actually, the monochrome/color switching that is most important
is _internal_ and completely automatic.  When you are in text
(monochrome) mode, this monitor--uniquely--increases its video
bandwidth significantly to allow clean 80-column text display.

There is also an _external_ switch that allows you to force
monochrome mode even witn graphics (color) display modes.
