yes the shorter one is the monitor port. I did not think there was a
difference between a mac and a pc monitor, but then if your pc is modern
enough for this to be different perhaps this is the case.
others?
When I got my beige g3, I got a monitor with it.

Hank,
in the back of the unit, on the lower right hand side at the very
bottom
there are a series of ports. Granted I am working as if you had the
machine facing you and are reaching around behind it. One of them as
you
have noticed looks like a printer or parallel port. there is a second
port on the left. Between the two of them there is a round port that
is
much like a mouse or keyboard port and one that fits a phone jack.
The shorter of the two ports is for the monitor.
I hope that makes sense.
