 Ok, but the relevance of stating one could have (i.e.
use) one for $1,700 or whatever seems irrelevant (if
an expensive *IBM* monitor had to be added). Don't
have the ad in front of me, but I was also of the
persuasion any display adapter was optional equipment.
 But there's nothing to say that an ad needs to be
relevant I guess...
