OK, folks, I *know* there are some knowledgeable people out there,
because I saw a whole slew of posts about GS monitors--frequencies, sizes,
resolutions, inputs, outputs, all kinds of stuff. So I will repeat my
question to the net: does anyone know if a Magnavox CM8764 can be used
with a GS? Is it the same as a 1CM135? If not, what are the differences?
And, importantly, if it can be used, how is it to be cabled? This info
is *very* important to me, since I have been basically computerless
since I lost my GS monitor, and I have finally got an opportunity within
my means to get a new monitor--if it will work, of course. I would
really appreciate any help or advice you can offer. Thanks.

Thy hand, great Anarch! lets the curtain fall,

[...] Well, I can't specifically tell you if it will work. However, during my research about GS monitors (I'm the one who was asking all those questions about 3 weeks ago.) I picked up a copy of the latest Computer Shopper mag. Much to my glee, they have a series of very informative articles on the different aspects of monitor technology and what to look for. Although the article is geared to IBM users, the information is generic enough that I think you would find it useful. They also give an enormous 4 or 5 page table of monitors (with their resolutions,etc) and at then end they give telephone numbers for a huge number of manufacturers. Since this article covers virtually everything I was going to in my article, I've decided to just recommend the Computer Shopper issue instead. Armed with it, most people should be able to track down the rest of the imformation the need themselves (including cabling info) -- Kevin S.
