To add a bit to the historical note. Shortly before Radius acquired 
SuperMac, SuperMac acquired E-Machines who was a Mac video card and 
monitor company.   There was a Mac oriented E-Machines long before 
the current cheap-PC E-Machines.  So Radius ended up with both of 
their competitors.   I got a Futura II video card at a nice price 
(for the time) when Radius was clearing out E-Machine's stock.
