Also worth noting (I'm really confused as to who has which system now), 
only some systems will even boot in color.  The IIsi is one of the few, 
as I understand it.  Based on a previous post, however, X-Windows won't 
run except in b/w (crashes) even on the IIsi.  The IIci won't even boot.  
Don't know about other systems.  If anybody has any info on this, send it 
in here.  I think several ppl would be interested -- esp. ppl who are 
trying to get color X working.  That'd be a good list to put in an FAQ list 
somewhere, too.

Comments, anyone?
