Hello out there,

	Have any of you serious ST hackers attempted to build a switchbox that
will allow you to switch between a monochrome and color monitor without
unplugging cables?

	I know that somebody sells one of these things for about $50, but
It seems like the type of project that shouldn't be that difficult for
someone with a minimal amount of guts and skills with a soldering iron (you
don't have to worry about frying ICs).

	If anyone has any experience or suggestions regarding this type of
project (Parts required, etc) please email me and I'll try to put something
together to post to the net.
