Peter,

I have been using an Apple mono monitor and an Apple color minitor for a 
couple of weeks now without problems.  In fact, I even have them set to 
different densities:  the color is 8 bits/pixel and the mono is 4.  Those 
programs that work with only 256 colors turned on will work on both monitors, 
as long as at least one of them is set to 256.  A window that stretches over 
both monitors will display to the maximum resolution of each monitor, so you 
really have nothing to lose in terms of software power.  As an aside-- I find 
text easier to read on the Apple color than on the Apple b&w monitor.
