Jake; yep, just because I have 3 macs and a IIgs networked with Phonenet adapters and tied to an Asante AppleTalk to Ethernet adapter plugged into a Linux PC running Netatalk. use the PC to get .bin files down off the Internet.

Connected via the HDI45 port routes audio out, microphone in, video and ADB to the monitor. You plug the keyboard into the monitor. Apple originally intended to have video capture via an S-Video port on the monitor, but never implemented it so the AV 14 monitors shipped with a rubber plug in that port. For connecting a normal VGA monitor, you already have an HDI45 to Mac 15 pin adapter. What you need is a normal Mac to VGA adapter like this one to plug onto it. http://www.computercablestore.com/Mac_to_PC_Monitor_Adapter_PID945.aspx So, at the suggestion of Gregg, I bought a "smart" DB15-to-VGA adapter on eBay. I didn't buy the one he sent in the link because I feared it might not be compatible. However, after a quick search, I found that there is a Griffin adapter with better compatibility. Thanks for the suggestion, Gregg! The adapter has 8 DIP switches that allow for interpretation of monitors. I could send a 640x480 or 832x624 resolution to a 1440x900 display (or some variation of that). I'll let everybody know when I get it just how well it works. In the interim, anybody have any suggestions, in terms of software or hardware, for file sharing between two system 7 machines, neither of which have ethernet? I have a MiniDin8 cable hooked up to the back of both machines, but I can't get them to recognize each other. Suggestions? -Jake On Nov 16, 3:04 pm, "J.

Again, don't forget that _very_ few modern LCDs will do 832x624, at any refresh rate. NEC MultiSync LCDs, however, do seem to support that res. From my testing, none of the following _very common_ LCDs will sync to a 6100, without an HPV card, at _any_ resolution, even with a good quality Mac -> VGA adapter: Dell 2001fp Dell 2405fpw Dell S2309w Samsung SM2032BW To get everything to sync, I had to either us an old 19" Trinitron CRT, or install the HPV card, which gives a wider variety of supported resolutions. - Alex -- ----- You received this message because you are a member of the Vintage Macs group.
