Mine too. I think probably my first was green and then I picked up an amber one. Believe it or not it was considered a pretty big deal when I was in college to get an extra display card and have 2 of these bad boys going at once, so you could, get this, run the debugger in one monitor and view the output on the other. At the *same time*
Even when I got a pentium with a VGA display, still to have a 2nd monitor you needed a hercules graphics card to support a 2nd monitor, and that 2nd one was text only. 80x24 characters.
Prior to that, the screen would switch back and forth.
