- Yep. IBM in Europe will be selling the Radius card directly. On this

- You'll have to talk to Radius about that. Still, it's a very nice and
- impressive card, especially under OS/2. And their box is much cuter
- than IBM's :-)

- Really? I didn't know they were running that late. The 9517 is a very,
- very nice monitor to have if you're going to work on a computer all day.
- It sure beats my 8515! Still, if you don't need ISO, I like a good
- multisync monitor with the board, since I really like the 800x600x64k
- mode on a 15" monitor.
