Just came across a little 5x5x1" high metal box
with the following connectors
on it:
15-pin connector labelled "to computer"
15-pin connector labelled "to monitor"
15-pin high-density connector labelled "to LCD panel"
connectors for "power in" and "power out"
It's badged as being made by In Focus Systems, "For Macintosh II" and model
"A-35C".
Focus Systems makes scan converters to go from VGA or RGB to an
assortment of things. IIRC, one of their products was a translucent LCD
panel that you put on an overhead projector for showing the image of your
computer screen.
This sounds very much like the scan converter box for that LCD panel. I
would not at all be surprised if it is really just a fancy RGB to VGA
converter and can probably be plugged into any VGA monitor.
