Scott and Pickle,
Some months ago (May or June, I think) we had a back-and-forth on one of
the LEM lists about D-connector nomenclature. As I remember the course of
the discussion, someone pointed out that the Dx-nn nomenclature specifies
the hardware characteristics. 'D' indicates the shell shape
It is a DB-15. "Db-15" is the name of the physical connector itself. It
doesn't say anything about what's going through it. I could wire up some
DB-15s to my car's spark plugs and it would probably work - But I'm not
going to be able to control my car from a PC Joystick just because it

It's definitely a DB-15. It just isn't a DB-15 that c

"4.8 Can I use my GS Monitor on a Mac or PC?
A: As stated above in using other monitors on the GS, the GS monitor
expects a 15Khz horizontal refresh signal. In addition, the monitor
itself has an 0.37" dot pitch, which as far as modern monitors go,
that is atrocious.
As I was forcefully informed, it's not a DB-15. ;-)
The IIgs provides both composite video through an RCA socket and some sort
of RGB monitor support through the DB-15 (sic) socket.
As my original post said, I was trying to find out if the AppleColor RGB
Monitor from a IIgs could be driven from
