In response to the questions about Apple Color Monitors making soft popping sounds (like static) after warming up... A couple of weeks ago, I noticed that mine was experiencing this problem. Being somewhat concerned (and still under warranty) I took it in for service. I was informed that this was a known problem with the monitors. Apparently in humid conditions, you can get static discharges inside the monitor. I was told not to worry about it. Nonetheless, I am probably going to put my IIcx and monitor on AppleCare. This seems to be a logical explanation, since I have brought my Mac in to work where it is air-conditioned and the monitor now seems to be perfectly happy. --Jim ----------------------------------------------------------------------- James Mace (jm5b+@andrew.cmu.edu) Department of Biological Sciences, Carnegie Mellon University Pittsburgh, PA "If we knew how it worked, it wouldn't be called research" -----------------------------------------------------------------------
