Piazza) Followup-To: comp.sys.mac Distribution: na Organization: SUNY/Buffalo Computer Science Lines: 31 I will soon be ordering a Mac IIx here at work. While the Apple (Sony) color monitor looks great, I would like to have more connection options, in particular, being able to use it on an Amiga (NTSC 640 X 400 interlaced; VGA freqs? 640 x 480 non-interlace). The best guide so far I've come across is in October's MacUser in an ad by Truevision (video card) that shows a bunch of monitors including a Sony 1271 (756x486 NTSC interlaced), and a Sony 1302 (1024x768 interlaced). By comparison there's the "Apple" 640x480 non-interlaced. Any of these do the job? At what kind of prices? Any other suggestions? And how about a cable for the Mac II? (a cable for the Amiga would be nice too but it can wait). As always, please respond via e-mail and I summarize and post. Thanks, joe piazza --- In capitalism, man exploits man.
