Julio, this not a stupid question. The very nature of mac68k is that unused
pieces of hardware are taken out of closets and used. That includes
monitors.
I'm hoping to get a clue about this, also, because I have a Mono hi-res
monitor I'd like to utilize with a PC. Those are really dany monitors, all
told, and I'd like to avoid purchasing another one just to connect it to a
PC.
