Maybe for the viseogame market, if they are 14" composite color
monitors, the apple ones have really good picture tubes... If they are
VGA, they also have good picture tubes and possibly are also for the
video games matket or maybe for a cheap all-in one internet appliance.

As a Commodore fan it can be hard to get Commodore composite monitors
because most other classic computerists/gamers know how good some of
them are.
