1056.0. "High persistence monitor and light pen" by CSSE::WARD () Mon Jan 11 1988 15:23

   Well...  I'm hooked on DPaint ][ and WordPerfect.   Now I want a
   "easy on the eye" high persist monitor for flicker-free/text
   processing work.  I read of such a device from a N.J. firm
   (Hypertek) in the Jan issue of INFO.  It's a high-persist
   monochrome with a built-in lightpen port and RGB pass thru for 
   $129. 

   Now for the dilemma,  While shopping I spied a nice Panasonic 
   (MT125 I think) on sale for $69/$89 at Lechmere with an "IBM" nine 
   pin connector. [Don't know if video card is needed]

Q1:  Can IBM monitors be connected to the A1000 and will above
     monitor deliver pixel/flicker free performance.

Q2:  Can one drive two monitors with a split cable?

Q3:  Is there another inexpensive solution?

P.s.  I'm hoping I can use a Light Pen I saw at the Software Shop 
      with it.
