- You may want to consider this before buying a 16" monitor and connecting it to
- the internal video of the IIci: the internal video does NOT support any screen
- size above 640x480 (13"). I have a E-Machines T16 II, and when hooked to the
- internal video, it produces an enlarged version of a 13" screen. In order to get
- 832x624 (16") on a IIci, you need to add a video card. Of course, you could
- upgrade to a Quadra 700. It's video circuitry supports up to 21" displays (with
- extra VRAM).
