On our Zenith ZCM 1490 the monitor wouldn't be recognized as a color
monitor because the very fragile pins in the 15-pin connector weren't
seated deeply enough. Considering the very thick cable, they ought to
use sturdier pins. Plus the cable is not detachable at the monitor
end for replacement. Quirky Zenith hardware, as usual.
