Well, I strongly believe you mean the topic "How do I run an old monitor on sawtooth" started by Brian Christmas on Nov. 17, 2008. He was looking for such an adaptor, but couldn't find it in Australia. At that time I had several of these laying around and only one still in use (and even till now to connect a ColorSync 20-inch to a VooDoo-3 in my PM 9699/350). Till around 2 yrs ago I used 2 of these adaptors to connect 2 ColorSync's 20-inch to a Sawtooth. Never had/have any problems. Well and after sending one to Brian Christmas he told me the adapter also works well with him. I know they are hard to find now. But last week I saw still several in a small local (Amsterdam, NL) Apple Service Station. They sell them for € 15 (= US$ 21,85 today). And perhaps I also have still one in my Old Mac Mass. Have to dig.
