not quite like this

not quite like this

Hullo, Hive-mind.

I seek a glorious alignment between an super-duper lovely ancient Macintosh monitor, and my modern PC. The stars tell me this can be done, with a weeny little adapter that looks almost entirely like this, but not quite. (I snarfed the pic off the internets, but it’s not quite the right one.)

Here’s a pic of my monitor’s cable. This is the end that plugs into one side of the mystical adapter that I can’t find to show you. (The other end of the adapter would plug into a standard vga monitor pluggy thing on the back of a PC onboard or PCI video card.)

I hear that quite a few years ago, the little adapters came with Mac G4s as a matter of course. I hear there somewhere, there are geeks who have drawerfuls of them. I seek the unicorn. Do you have one? Can trade, purchase, or simply go into transports of joy at the receipt of such a thing.
