I've just found another 17" LCD that works straight up and no fuss
Samsung Syncmaster 740A. ($15 from recycler)
This is a really good unit with telescopic stand for height adjustment and good onscreen menu.
Whatever upscaling it did, it had no problem at all with the 66Hz sync.
I wonder if we should start a list somewhere (a wiki, perhaps?) where people can add to the list any LCD monitors that they have been able to connect with a basic adapter. It could save others quite a bit of time and encourage saving of such monitors.
[bTW - mods.. when I access the wiki pages I just see plain text with basic HTML format, no style-sheet presentation. Is there a problem with the style-sheet or forum software there??]
