Re: Odd //c monitor

["Tim Haynes" <timhaynes@no.spam.please.alumni.uwaterloo.ca>]

I poked around a bit and can't find the eBay auction of which you speak.  I
know that at least one person put a compact Mac CRT into a IIc monitor
housing once (hencing getting blue/black instead of green/black).  Maybe the
seller did that, too?

If you could find the auction, that would be very helpful.
