Re: 12" apple RGB monitor question

That said, I have used my IIgs monitor on a Quadra, with a supermac card.
It is nowhere near as nice as using a mac monitor, because of the poor
resolution and flickering display.  (It was setup for NTSC frequencies.)

Why it appears so poorly on a Mac while it is fine on a IIgs is for
somebody with more experience than I to answer (but I'm guessing that
the course graphics on the IIgs has something to do with it).

So not only can't you do it (conveniently), you probably don't want to do
it.
