However, if you connect it to a newer Mac, or a PC, it will run in "VESA" mode, which allows you to use the higher resolutions without requiring ADB. For example, at the moment I'm running my 1710AV on my tray loading iMac G3. The iMac has an ATI Rage Pro, rather than an older Apple video controller, and recognises the 1710AV as a standard "VGA Display", and sends the appropriate sense codes to the monitor, to put it into "VESA" mode. This works fine, and I can run the monitor at any resolution up to 1280x1024.
