    Google is great but overwhelming.... so Major Geeks! Can I use a PC monitor on an old Mac Quadra 650 that runs great? We use it for our billing and reports and then email or fax them from a PC. Our current Mac monitor is starting to give us problems. Needless to say, Mac monitors are scarce out there but we have been offered used PC monitors. Will they work on my Quadra?

    From what I remember, the Quadra will need an adapter to enable output to a PC monitor.

    I think this will suit but there were a few variations and the switchable type was popular.

    Satrow.... many thanks for the input on this one. As soon as I saw the items in the two links you sent the memory kicked in. Going to try it once I find a friend that has a used one sitting in the garage....Thanks Again!
