I might have a cable or two like that for the Mac. I have some that are
15 pin like the Mac RGB connector, and go to a 9 pin like a CGA
connector. I don't know what they go to, they were just in a box of
cables that I aquired.
Humm... I wonder if I can use one of those cables with my Sabre monitors?

Was that a DA15 connector?
DE9: used for "modern" serial ports, CGA, MDA, etc.
DE15: aka HD15, same shell as DE9, but with 3 rows of pins, used for
common VGA
DA15: used for PC joystick, some network card, some Apple monitors
DB25: used for "old-style" (REAL) serial ports, also for PC parallel port,
and some SCSI ports
DB9: commonly misused for DE9. VALID use is for common implementation of
RS232 using a DB25 connector with only pins 1 through 8 and 20.

First look carefully for a brand or part number, otherwise may be pretty
hard to figure out what they work with.
You might be able to plug them into a second video card on a old mac and
use a Griffin utility to list all the monitor sense results (as available
resolutions).
Cornerstone, and a bunch of the smaller monitor brands for mac used that
type of cable in the old days.
