Lines: 18 I recently asked the same question on the net and got several replies that ONLY the LC has the video circuitry to handle displaying to a VGA monitor. So with a Mac IIsi you have to buy a Real monitor. I might suggest a NEC 14" MacSync. You can get them from Hardware Express 1-800-622-7123 for $460 (this includes UPS Blue shipping). This also includes a 1 year manufaturor's warranty. I have yet to receive mine (I just ordered it a couple of days ago) but know of 2 other people who ordered a MacSync from this place with no problems. One of them has it connected to is IIsi. One item to note is that NEC has discontinued production of this monitor. I don't know why, but at this price, I'll take the risk envolved with buying a discontinued product. <<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> Michael Steele steele@dg-rtp.dg.com or mikes@catt.ncsu.edu Data General Corporation -- Building the finest Workstations in Industry <<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>
