Re: Need help finding monitor for IIGS

[scraft@nothinbut.net]

I have an Atari ST monitor hooked up to my IIGS now.  It has sound
built-in; there is actually an audio-out pin on the IIGS video port and
there must be the same on the Atari ST since I get sound out of the
monitor.  :)

However, I need to really use a VGA monitor instead.  Where can I get a
Second Sight card?
