Oh, so that is why my Sony 1302 Multiscan, manufactured in June of 1987 and
tuned for an IBM PC type machine has it 2/3 of the way DOWN the screen.
Of course, the 13" color HP monitor I use to use (that also had a Sony tube
in it) had the line in the same place, and *that* was manufactured in 1985.
I guess they figured those HI guys at Apple were so bright, that they should
change the production of ALL the monitors they produced, even before Apple
asked for the change (I know, they use the Cray for time travel :-).

Good grief.
