Another ST compatible monitor found, Marshall M-LYNX-15

So I actually picked this Marshall M-LYNX-15 monitor up as a way to use my PAL C64 since it accepts both PAL & NTSC signals. I managed to find a cheap one which was missing the stand but it seems that these are a little rare and often expensive.

 

The one I got was damaged in shipping and the LCD screen cracked but I was able to swap out the screen with one from a cheap-o vga monitor and got it working yesterday and to my surprise it actually accepted the signal from the ST on the VGA port in both low and medium res mode. 

 

I hooked up the high res cable but it didn't accept that.

 

The aspect ratio is correct (4x3) even though the monitor is naively 5x4 so this left a blank area on the right side of the screen but I'm fine with that, I'd prefer that to having a stretched image.

In addition to VGA the monitor also has DVI, Composite, S-Video, and component inputs so it's a good all-around retro-computer monitor.  It also has audio inputs and outputs so you can either use the built in speakers or pass the audio through to something external.

 

Anyway thought I'd share this in-case someone is looking for a monitor.
