It is a DB-15. "Db-15" is the name of the physical connector itself. It doesn't say anything about what's going through it. I could wire up some DB-15s to my car's spark plugs and it would probably work - But I'm not going to be able to control my car from a PC Joystick just because it fits.
It's one of those annoying things of the computer world :) Trying to figure out whether a term refers to the hardware, the software, or the protocol :) Scott Holder -----Original Message----- From: Quadlist [mailto:quadlist@;mail.maclaunch.com] On Behalf Of Spiritus ex Machina Sent: Thursday, October 24, 2002 8:44 AM To: Quadlist Subject: Re: Can a Performa 475 drive an AppleColor Monitor? As I was forcefully informed, it's not a DB-15. ;-) The IIgs provides both composite video through an RCA socket and some sort of RGB monitor support through the DB-15 (sic) socket. As my original post said, I was trying to find out if the AppleColor RGB Monitor from a IIgs could be driven from an LC475/P475/Q605 mobo. -- Quadlist is sponsored by <http://lowendmac.com/> and...
