1. My son is about to purchase a 128 and 1571 disk.  He is unsure regarding
what type of monitor (RGB or Composite) to buy.  Can anyone give us some
guidance?  Also, does anyone have any brand recommendations or caveats?

2. We have a C64, with a Gorilla Banana printer :-) , its works well (rather
noisy), but when using Micorsoft Multiplan, I cannot get the alphas to
print other than lower case.  Does anyone have a similar configuration who
can offer help?  Any other suggestions?

Thanks a lot.
