Get a PS/2 model 25 or 30, there's lots of those floating
around. I saw a model 25 with colour VGA for free a couple
of days ago. I didn't pick it up though because I've
already got a mono VGA one which I like better. The model
25 is one of my favourite classics... that's the one with
the built in 12" VGA monitor that looks a bit like a Mac
brick.

Yep, that's why technical expertise of any kind is worth
so much money....... it costs a lot to get.
