Hi!
I have one of these things here. Until today I thought it was the right adapter to connect a DB-15 Mac to a VGA display, but it seems it's built for the exact opposite: connect a VGA computer to an Apple DB-15 display.
My question is: if I buy two gender changers (one for DB-15, and one for VGA) will this actually work? Or are the display signaling pins wired in some way that works only in one direction (using diodes, etc)? And will it work fine on an LC 475?
The reason I'm asking is the gender changers are way cheaper and faster to obtain (locally VS shipping from the US) than the typical adapters with DIP switches, etc.
Thank you,
Miguel Arroz
