The ELC was much more desirable since it had a different CRT tube that
held up much better than the tube in the SLC. The SLCs would get very
blurry over time, while the ELCs would stay sharp.

Hi Jonathan
That is true, the old black/white monitors were really crisp, but I
preferred
the standalone ones myself. Always found the ELC/SLC one to be fairly
unreliable and because of the lack of a fan always ran hot. Nice
packaging for
its time, especially as it had onboard SCSI.
