Dell UltraSharp 2007FPB 20" LCD Monitor

Well, the Gateway KX2153 21" LCD W/S Monitor works perfect for me with my A500's and the C< buffered adapter. Also, over at Epsilon's Amiga Blog - Epsilon discovered an Acer equivalent.

Not so well with the A1200 yet but we're working on it as depicted here...

I'm going to get just a straight passthru 23pin to 15pin adapter here shortly and try that with the A1200 - and continue to pursue the buffered adapter's fix.

I was curious where the "buffered" description is coming from. I thought the Commodore adapter was NOT buffered. I do not even know what that means in this context to be honest, but I thought that is what separates this:

from the Commodore and similar adapters.

Well, I always thought it was buffered (390682-01 quick search) as described here...

So yours is simply a passthru (no IC inside)?

If that's the case then I wont bother buying a passthru.... good to know jdryyz. I keep meaning to google the chip inside (74HCT08 - quad 2-input AND gate) the C< version. Think I'll do that right now... :lol:

I'm going to pin this IC out to which ever (input and output) pins go to the monitor (MmmHmm - later).



Anyone else?

The one I got from the Amibay seller, yes. The Commodore is a buffered adapter, apparently. I learned that just today.  

Makes me curious now. I might crack open my non-Commodore adapter to see if it really is chip free.

And please check to see if pin15 has continuity to ANYTHING inside! :laugh1: *
