Having been around Mac's from the 'beginning' I have quite a collection up in the attic. But however I enjoy my contemporary models, I still keep a couple old G3/G4 boxes going to run a considerable collection of 0S9 software and as an archive of older material.
But and there is always a but with older machines, just as I was searching through my archives for some old pieces of writing this week, the original Mac screen gave up the ghost on the G3 beige desktop.
Short of finding an old VGA screen in the trash, and there are plenty , I'd like to hook up a newish [non MAC] flat screen monitor that could also double as a second with my MacBook. Other then the change of adapter, Is there any reason a newer screen shouldn't work under 0S9? And what pitfalls might I be on the look out for?
Any help, sugestions or advise appreciated
