Afraid not Tony.  The 1080 monitor has a fixed vertical frequency of 15.75 kHz.  The
minimum VGA frequency is 31.5 kHz.  However, the 1080 has a nice composite (CVBS)
input and depending on which model 1080, with the right cable, you can even get
Y/C (S-Video) input, via the seperate chroma and luma inputs.  Also with the right
cable, you can hook up any device that outputs standard RS-170A RGB component video.
