I can think of two other possibilities. It may actually be an 9" amber CRT substituted for the B&W (I think this very unlikely) More likely, it is a coating on the monitor surface. If you were going to create a fake, that would be the easiest way. It might also explain the writing on the CRT - so no one will try to clean the CRT (because it would removed the 'valuable' indication that this is a prototype) with a solvent that might take the coating off as well as the marker. ===== ----------------- Ed Murphy [EMAIL PROTECTED] __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!?
