To:           <INFO-DEC-MICRO@ANDREW.CMU.EDU>
========================================================================

It's nice to know I'm not the only one stuck, er.. make that blessed
with this machine.  I have a Rainbow 100B, 896K, graphics, etc.

I am curious about monitor and hard-disk options for the Rainbow.  Does
anyone know if a NEC Multisync can be connected (I realize some kind of
converter would be needed to match the cables, but how hard can that
be?).  What about CHEAP hard-disk upgrades?  Any suggestions?

With regard to the question about graphics editors:  I found one called
XPRESS on a FIDO BBS about a month ago.  It looks to me like a first
draft of Windows Paint for a Rainbow, but the accompanying docs claim
that it is free for the taking.  DRAW and COLOR-MAGIC are the only
others I have seen.
