        Now, I've never tried to replace the CRT in something like a
Lisa or other single piece machine, but I wouldn't think that the CRT
would be that difficult to replace? For companies like Zenith that
actually manufactured CRT's, I could see there possibly be a problem
with swapping it out for a different one though but I know that Apple
didn't manufacture the CRT's in the Lisa.

        Also, the auction states that the green CRT is easier on the
eyes...isn't that false? I always thought that the paperwhite
displays, such as used on some DEC terminals and monitors such as the
Multisync GS, were easier on the eyes than the green?
