Dwight,

>>If MacIntosh had had their way, we might be all still looking at 9" black and white screen computers that we paid $2,000 for. Oh yeah I forgot, they had to make tiny black and white screens so the units would be "affordable".

Expensive yes, but never lagging on the technical features, so this does not ring true as to what would have been. When the Mac was introduced color monitors/cards were really expensive. My first EGA monitor 5 years later was $700 and was a "good deal". Even today very few people I know buy a 21" monitor because of the cost.

Cheers,

Norm
