Actually, this is almost right.  SuperMac is selling an Ikegami monitor,
and a Sony monitor, but the Sony is actually the THIRD monitor they've sold.

The Ikegami replaced an earlier tube (whose name escapes me at the
minute), although the swap was not widely publicized.  Apparently the
Ikegami is better, but I don't know who has the earlier tube, other than
developers who bought in early.  (Not Palomar!  It was tough enough
buying the Mac II's...)
