i have this big apple monitor that i need some help
with. it's big, beige,
and heavy with a motorized tilt screen and a db15 connector. i'm having a
video problem with the monitor. i don't get any kind of raster screen and i
do not have the special card to run it on my //e. i've tried it on the video
port of my laser 128 and on my dodgy apple ///, all to no avail. can anyone
figure out a possible solution? if i cannot get it to work, i'd like to get
rid of it, but it's so heavy it wouldnt be worth shipping unless you live in
north carolina.
I don't suppose you have a Apple IIgs you can try it out on? They use a
DB15 connectory and RGB monitors. I've heard that some of the early Mac's
can use RGB monitors, but have never gotten around to trying out any of
mine on one of my RGB monitors.
Out of curosity when you say big, just how big do you mean? I've seen some
monitors with a tilt screen, but I didn't think they were motorized (might
have been).
Since it is beige and RGB the odds are it was intended for the Apple IIe or
III, if it was for the IIgs or any Mac that could handle a external monitor
it would be platinum.
