I would guess the DECmate also uses SOG. Also also possibly any help - I used a VR241 monitor on an Amiga 500 for years with a cable I knocked up out of a VAXstation monitor cable and a 23-pin clamshell which was almost unobtanium in those days, so if you have a monitor that works with an A500 you stand a chance of getting it working with other things. -- Adrian/Witchy Binary Dinosaurs creator/curator Www.binarydinosaurs.co.uk - the UK's biggest private home computer collection?
