Any...

    Mac Monitor for $5!

    Liberated an Apple Multiple Scan 15av display today. Got it from the thrift store downtown, and it works perfectly. There was a tag on the end of the cable labeled 'tower.' Asked if they had the tower that goes with the monitor. No dice. Manufactured Sept. 96, so odds are very good that I...
