I posted an inquiry a while back regarding the use of Sun 3/50 monitor as a dual page display for Macintosh machine. Since then, I received a lot of mails from people who are looking for the same thing. Thus, I'm posting my finding back on the network to let them know, rather than responding to each and every one. Mr. Johnson (@ Sun Microsystem), was kindly enough to point me to the right source. The company name is Lapis Technology located in Alameda, CA. They make nubus board call the Display Server which allows you to use a wide variety of monitor types with the Macintosh, including the Sun monitor.
