Hi folks,
	I apologize if I'm beating a dead horse, but I'm new to ST's -
ich bin neu hier.  I'll keep this short.

	I understand that ST monitors come in two flavors - color and
monochrome.  Monochrome has high resolution (good text, but can't run
anything written for the color monitor), and that color has medium (?)
resolution (garbage text - no offense intended.  Has impressive color
graphics).  I'd REALLY hate to have two monitors sitting on my desk.  In
other words, I want a monitor that can handle BOTH color and monochrome
capabilities with a switch to select one of the modes.  On an unrelated
note, if the monitor can also accept TV/VCR signals, that would be nice
too :-).  I heard that someone on this newsgroup is very happy with a
Magnavox monitor; what's the model?  Any other suggestions are
appreciated.

P.S.  I'd also welcome any interesting tidbits, tips, horror stories,
work-arounds, etc.  Thanks.
