I have a Mac and a NeXT. I'm trying to get by as inexpensively
as possible and would like to know the best (the only, any) way
to connect my 21" color NeXT monitor to the Mac IIcx.
I'm currently using a 21" greyscale on the Mac, but even though
the pins on the cable are identical, all I get on the NeXT monitor
are horizontal lines (so the scan rate is off, right?) Is there
any way to overcome this?  Will it work somehow with my Apple
color card?

Is there a hardware or software solution?

Maybe I should forget the whole thing about monitors and try
networking the systems together?  But, I really need to run
Mac software.

Any insight or help would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks in advance!
Jonathan
