I'm using a 1084DS Amiga monitor on mine with its D9 socket connected to 
a home made adapter cable. Works just fine. I love the colour that these 
monitors have too. I swear they had the prettiest blue of any CRT ever. 
Also that MOD player program that doesn't use the standard toolboxes  (I 
forget the name) leaves me grinning like an idiot because it feels just 
like an Amiga.
