- I'm thinking of buying a IIsi. I've been playing with some IIsi's
- here at work and they seem sort of slow to me. All the ones I've been
- playing with have 8-bit color displays. Is it reasonable to assume that
- the machine will be faster with something like the Apple Portrait Display
- or the Radius monochrome Pivot (my current favorite displays) because it
- won't have to move so much display memory around? Any rational way to
- guess how much faster?
