I have noticed several people on campus here who have ordered Mac systems with Apple's new 21" Monitor have received all of there equipment except the video cards. I wonder if others have had similar experiences ? Is there a problem with the cards ? You would think that they would make one per monitor....

Missing 21-inch video cards? Sounds like the great B/W - Color monitor fiasco. Remember when Apple misprojected demand for the monitors on the early Mac IIs? They thought everyone would buy black & white, but instead everyone wanted color, and there was such a severe shortage that Apple had to give out "loaner" b/w monitors to new customers until the color monitors arrived?
