Hi David,

I do hope that the monitor / projector makers won't leave us 
(collectively) out in the cold having to buy thousands of "converters" 
to attach our old equipment to new display devices. I haven't bought any 
monitors or projectors very recently though. I think my Sony flat screen 
has a VGA port on the back, as well as HDMI.

Sincerely,

Ron

call on the phone.  I get about 300 emails per day from alternate energy
mailing lists and such.  I don't always see new messages very quickly.)
