Yes, the ST SIMMs are standard. You can use either 1megx8 (Mac SIMMs) or 1megx9 (IBM SIMMs) at 120ns or faster. - 2 ) Can a MultiSynch monitor (eg. NEC 2A) be hooked to an ST. - How (I don't have a multisynch yet so don't get too technical - - just an outline will be fine) ? - Will it display all three resolutions ? The NEC 2A won't work 'cause it's not a 'true' multisync. I'm using an NEC 3D right now. I know others who have used NEC II, Sony 1302, and many other models. There are some basic guidelines to the type of monitor you can use. -- Ed Krimen ............................................... ||| Video Production Major, California State University, Chico ||| INTERNET: ekrimen@ecst.csuchico.edu FREENET: al661 / | \ SysOp, Fuji BBS: 916-894-1261 FIDONET: 1:119/4.0

The cable is made by Lindy and is - available at least in Germany. But it is a quite easy one to make - yourself too. The reason I said it won't work with the ST is that a couple of people told me that it won't sync when connected to the ST; therefore, I didn't risk trying it out, since they know more about it than I. I don't go around making these things up. :^) Do you get all three resolutions with the 2a or just color or mono? -- Ed Krimen ............................................... ||| Video Production Major, California State University, Chico ||| INTERNET: ekrimen@ecst.csuchico.edu FREENET: al661 / | \ SysOp, Fuji BBS: 916-894-1261 FIDONET: 1:119/4.0
