Ok, I connected my NeXT to the Apple 17" MultipleScan M2494 (using the 13w3 to DB15 adapter), took a deep breath and hit the power switch on the keyboard.
Works. The NeXT slab enlightend the screen and the machine started (system check, disk check (nicely animated by a "working harddive" symbol), login screen). What makes me wonder is that it works dispite the Apple monitor is not documented to support the NeXT typical "sync on green" (this monitor speaks "separate sync" and "composite sync"). Well, maybe I should not speak it loud and enjoy as long as the monitor does not notice it. Then, I tried it with another monitor: The Eizo FlexScan F340i-W, 15" screen, which understands sync on green, but does not support the needed resolution of 1120x832 (the Eizo is able to handle 1024 x 768) The Eizo works also pretty sweet. Sometimes things are easier than it seems:) NeXT task will be to sail around the login-password cliff (machine was formerly owned by "MIT"), but I found a useful hint here: http://www.peanuts.org/faq-serve/cache/311.html ^_^ -- Quadlist is sponsored by <http://lowendmac.com/> and...
