[comp.sys.apple] RGB cards

I know RGB options exist with certain RAM boards but are there any stand only
RGB cards around anymore and if there are, where can I get one (a good mail
order company is prefered)

I tried to respond by mail, but our mailer won't cooperate:

I am using Videa 7 Enhancer IIe, which is meant as a replacement of
the 80 col card, and hence carries 64K of memory.  The card has
IBM RGB output (which is good, because I have a mix of machines).
I have two cards, which I bought about 1.5 years ago from Programs
Plus at 125$.  The cards work very well, and I have had no problems
with them.  Programs Plus advertizes in Apple-dedicated journals (e.g.,
InCider).  I have used them fairly often, and never had problems with them.

In addition, Amdek used to make an RGB card that provides
Apple-RGB pinout.  The card was called DVM, and was available for the II+
and the IIe.  Last time I checked, the card was about 115$.  I have
one, but I do not like it as well as the Video 7 card.  You should be
able to order the card directly from Amdek (if they still make it), if
you cannot find it mail-order.  (Amdek is in Illinois, I believe, and they
advertise regularly in magazines, so you should have little trouble
getting their telephone number).

If you want any more info (including the tel. numbers), send me mail --
I don't have all the info handy here at work.
