The megapel is a really nice display. The 8514a is not as nice, but might cost less or something. Anything smaller: forget it. By the way, IBM has not yet released drivers that work correctly with X11R3 (although I'm told they have them). As shipped, you get X11R2 :-( > worth your ime to switch over to 4.3, as most of the public domain software > that I have tried will run with few changes.
