Just a minute ago, under multifinder, I was answering a question to
a friend about screen dumps.  After explaining about cmd-shft-3/4,
I decided to check it out on my mac II.  Knowing that I had to be in
2 bit monitor, I went to the monitors cdev, and selected 2.  At that
point, the screen went fuzzy like you see when your tv is tuned to a 
channel that doesn't exist...kinda scared me.  Anyway, I rebooted, and
tried it again, and sure enough, it did it again.  It works fine under
the normal finder, but not multifinder (6.1b7).  I only had one application
running.  Now did I do a no-no, or is maybe something amiss here?

system 6.02, finder 6.1, a slew of inits (none to manipulate the screen, 
however), 5Megs RAM, multifinder active.
