Re: Apple IIc: RGB Video-7 --> CGA adapter.

["Deacon Blue" <scavenger@apexmail.com>]

Dear David!

Thanks for  your information!

According to this I would require:

-   "Video - expansion cable" for the IIC,
-   a  IIGS - compatible (TV) analog  RGB monitor  as display

in order to have a proper display!

best regards
