I hooked it up. Thanks to some kind soul, on the net, I found out why it would fail. This doesn't look nice. For some reason, this monitor hangs the A500 (from other user reports) and my A2000. For some reason, the H-SYNC needs to be buffered through a TTL driver. (like a 74F00). The symptoms of this failure: 1) The machine won't boot. 2) If you leave the connector off, the machine will boot, reconnect the monitor, after boot, all is fine. When the machine "hangs", I believe it hangs in the "Fat" Agnus test. (Color codes). What's really funny about this, is the Amiga only hangs during "testing of hardware" type of operation. Like warm boot. (Or cold) Can anybody shed light on this? CBM? CATS? Is this monitor a piece of execrement? -- Work: Computer Consoles Inc.
