I have.  :-).  Internally.  They are very sharp and bright.  They are
very nice monitors.  And they are shipping (so I hear)  The crispness
rivals monochrome monitors.  And they appear sharper than the large screen
displays I have seen for the Macintosh, Mac SE, or Mac II.

Or you could get two monitors, and one video card, and switch between
monitors when you want one or the other.  If you had two video cards,
you could have both screens up at the same time acting as one big
screen, half BW, half color (this is really neat to see)
