Re: rgb video for apple IIC+

["Henry" <apl2research(.a.t.)comcast.net>]

Hey guys.

I have a few of these IIc RGB adaptors.  I had no idea they were so rare. 
Maybe I'll look in to cloning them?

Anyway,  MacDOG:  I'll get one of the adaptors in the mail to you this week. 
Let me know how it works out for you.
