APPLEVISION Monitor - test-drb@ccmp.vtda.org

...
  It's a
tossup which was the less reliable
product: the 1710AV, or the PowerBook 5300. Check out some of the
you-had-to-be-there rants about this monitor in Google Groups
(comp.sys.macintosh.*)  
 UGH... well, I had the PB 5300, and if the 1710AV was 
 anywhere near that bad... YIKES! 
Sorry fer yer bad luck, son... flawless PB5300ce
here, too bad I slightly melted the case, would be
a museum piece some day. Well, will anyway...

Current use: Prime 2455 system console, plus plays
Arashi (Finnish clone of TEMPEST) quite nicely...

...also took it on cruise to use as blackjack practice
machine.
