A followup (of sorts), and more news on connecting up a MacII:

No one responed to my request for info on B&W monitors besides the
Apple one.   However, one person did send back a note that there
was enough address lines for 16MBit chips ( * 8 = 128 MBytes).  My
apologies to him for losing his address.

I eventually borrowed a Multisync and made my own cable.

Disk news:

The recent report on a 20 Meg SCSI from MacConnection prompted me to
try to call them.  As of today they are out of stock, but they hope
to have it in within a day or two (their supplier had already shipped
them).  They said that it would NOT work with a MacII (but would with
a SE).  They also asked me to call back tomorrow, saying they may have
the software fix to get it working w/ a MacII.   *VERY* helpful people.

Personal Computer Center has had a promotion on 30 Meg Drives for
$699 (contact Craig Toft at 213 214 1501).  However, they ran out
of stock over the weekend.  They will take back orders.  Mention
my name if you call him.

ps: I have no connections with any of the above companies except as
coustomer or possible coustomer to be (ie: I need a disk drive!).
