I got an Apple IIGS at the Garage Giveaway at Kansasfest two weeks ago, and since then I've been tinkering with it almost daily. I took this photo to show off the IIGS working with my Magnavox 1CM135 monitor that originally came with my Amiga 4000. My IIGS did include an AppleColor RGB display, but after using it for a week I'm not very impressed with it. The Magnavox is more vibrant and puts out a sharper picture, and its built in speakers are a huge boon for the IIGS.
To make the IIGS work with the Amiga monitor, I bought a DB9 connector and a DB15 cable, snipped off the female end of the cable, and after finding the pinouts I made a IIGS RGB to "Almost-CGA" Analog RGB Monitor cable.
I plan on using a manual RS-232 switchbox to switch between my Amiga 4000, the Appple IIGS, and my CGA-compatible Tandy 1000HX so I can have all 3 computers plugged into this monitor at the same time.
