Yes. Ultraspec Cables (at "http://www.ultraspec.com") make a series of D13W3
<-> HD-15 video cable adaptors, one of which should be exactly what you
need. There are two adaptors (# 1396 and # 1397) which allow Sun monitors to
be used with PC's and other devices with HD-15 VGA connectors, and the one
you use depends on which Sun monitor you have. Go take a look at
"http://www.ultraspec.com/13w3adap.htm" for info on all their 13W3 adaptors
(including the two I've mentioned).
Their # 1396 has a built-in sync combiner for monitors which require a
single composite H/V sync signal (most Sun monitors up to GDM-17E10 and
GDM-20D10), and their # 1397 does not have the sync combiner, and this
adaptor is used for newer Sun monitors. You'll need to check the web page to
determine exactly which adaptor you need.
You can order direct from Ultraspec if you can't find a local distributor in
your country. If you were in Australia I could source them for you...
Regards,
Craig.
