Or drowns in the dross.  I asked a question a couple days about where to 
get a replacement flyback transformer for my Radius PrecisionColor 20e 
since I have absolutely no other CRT's that will work nicely with my 
Ultra 2 that aren't otherwise totally taken by other machines... Apple 
Studio 21 --> Powermac G3, IBM G200 --> PentiumPro (my girlfriend likes 
it too much), IBM 6091 --> 41T (I suppose I could sacrifice the little 
41T but it's kind of stupid to pay $40 for the special cable and $40 for 
the GXT500 to run it headless), Sony GDM20Dsomething (SGI branded) ---> 
Crimson and won't work on anything else here.  All the rest of the 
displays are too cheap to take the output frequency of the Ultra Creator 
properly.  Even the KDS 17" sux ass for this... I get sync hold problems 
at the top 2 inches of the screen....

Poor man's suggestions?
