Duoh! I googlpixed apple II monitor and figured that out, but thanks! :I

Turns out to be gray, not Sun whatever, but I'll stick with that muck cooler color (color temp) if I decide on this one.

This one might just do. It will be much more shallow and have more area for the larger board, but I think it might look better than the Backster hack. The pedigree is more authentic in terms of the look as well.

That's a very nice feature of the Monitor II. But there's not enough front bezel room around the 10" Color CRT for that. That might work in portrait orientation, but the deflection board is much wider than it is high and that would likely make the angles wrong, but I've got another option for the tilt feature.

I found the lost pics . . .

Hmm, that's not a huge extrusion. I can see something like those cups on the back of old TVs covering that adequately. They served the same purpose - covering the last bit of a CRT's neck in a case that would otherwise have to be made deeper.

Trash80, the AMII is a 12" monitor. Just so you know.
