- Yah... I've got a Mac II (vintage!) that's been running monochrome for
- 5 years. I'm thinking about upgrading to color, but what monitors can I
- be sure of for A/UX and X(R5) compatibility. I want to go to higher
- res., too--how much is that supported?
-
- Specifically, does anyone know about the NEC 3 or 4FG (w/ MacFG 8X)?
- What resolutions can I use with the X11R5 binaries that exist, can I
- even boot to the A/UX console emulator?
-
- What about the E-Machines T16?
-
- On another note, NEC has a deal going right now where if you get a MacFG
- "display solution," they'll get you a CDR-37 reader. Can I use this
- with A/UX? I can't find any resolution to whether or not this type of
- drive will work with A/UX... Or, as a separate issue, whether or not
- it can be used to install A/UX 3.0 (I'm still using 2.0.1--much improved
- from 1.1 :-).
-
- Anyone care to share experiences with the above?
