Apr 27, 2008 8:48 AM in response to Tom Teesdaleby Tom Teesdale,Maybe i should rephrase the question. I realize that the resolution and number of colors are going to be limited. What types of monitors would not work? Using a db-15 to vga adapter, is there any reason something like a generic 15" lcd with vga input would not work. just as an example.
thanks -

Apr 27, 2008 9:11 AM in response to Tom Teesdaleby Kenichi Watanabe,It would probably work better with a multi-sync CRT. An old 15-inch LCD typically has 1024x764 native resolution. A newer 15-inch LCD may have higher resolution. But if the max output resolution is only 800x600, it will either use just the center 800 by 600 pixels and leave a black border, or it will compensate and make the image blurry. -
Apr 30, 2008 8:36 PM in response to Tom Teesdaleby Tom Teesdale,I pulled my applevision 750av out of the truck of my car and used it as a second monitor. Works fine.
I get 256 colors at 640/860 resolution (it was something like that.) on the 750av . I can use 1023 x whatever it was with 16 colors. I have thousands of color on the pb1400 lcd.
The 750av powers off just fine when the book is put to sleep.
