What might the "right" cable be? Is this something I can buy or find, or is
this a DIY project?  (I need a monitor for the A500 I just bought (-with- a
HD & power supply for $3) so potentially I could use one for both?!?) Now
regretting the AtariST w/monitor I gave away not too long ago...

Who made it & how do I identify it? (Not that I would ever skip a IIgs at a
thrift ever again, but they do sometimes pull all the cards out of them &
try to sell them indvidually.)

There are several apple monitors here. I take it "AppleColor RGB" is a
nameplate on the back?
How rare is the above monitor? What would be a "fair" price in the US?

Another nested question:

Hard drives: Wasn't there an external drive (winchester?) that worked with
the IIc & IIgs? I know there was one for the IIe, and any info on it would
be appreciated, since I now have several IIes and a IIc. (now kicking myself
for skipping that winchester a year ago, but it was $50 and had no manuals
and I had no way to test it at the time!)

thanks in advance & please post to the newsgroup
