That said, one thing I haven't tried yet (since I was under the impression
that 13W3 to VGA adapters almost never work on non-multisync monitors... I
guess I'm wrong there) is trying to do 4BNC -> 13W3 -> VGA, specifically
for my sun3. Does anyone know if that'll work or if that actually will
require me to find a multisync monitor?
