TOPIC



    Does the Macintosh IIci support the Apple Portrait Display and Apple
    2-page Monochrome Monitor? I've heard that it doesn't.

DISCUSSION

    The Macintosh IIci has the equivalent of a video card built into the main
    logic board. Other video cards can be added to any one of the three NuBus
    slots.

    The built-in video circuitry supports:

    - Apple Macintosh 12" RGB Display (@ 2, 4, 16, and 256 colors or levels
    of gray)

    - Apple High-Resolution Monochrome Monitor (@ 2, 4, 16, and 266 levels
    of gray)

    - AppleColor High-Resolution RGB Monitor (@ 2, 4, 16 and 256 colors or
    levels of gray)

    - Apple Macintosh Portrait Display (@ 2, 4, and 16 levels of gray)

    Therefore, the Two-Page Monochrome Monitor does not work if simply
    connected to the built-in video circuitry, but WILL if used with its
    respective NuBus video card.

    All the other monitors mentioned will also work if connected to the
    Macintosh IIci through compatible NuBus cards.
