Highlights
Quality
Like another reviewer here i had success with the switches set to 2367
After checking one by one the suggested modes 16 it works beautifully with the mode 5 2367 switch positions
What did work was turning the computer off and back on with the adapter set to 2367 and there it was
Start with the 640x480 67hz setting as this is most likely to get a picture
Packaging/appearance
This looks to be 169 unfortunately and youll need to choose it in the 34options
Competitiveness
Works with macintosh performa from 1997 macintosh iici and macintosh centris 650
Im using it on a mac iici with a dell 2134 monitor
My set up mac performa 6200cd connected to a 2434 samsung syncmaster

First mode i tried did bring up the 34out of range34 message on my lcd but it only took a couple of minutes perusing some of these reviews to find a good suggestion for a code to try with my vintage mac lc iii and that code worked right away

As some other reviewers have pointed out on a lot of the old computers this thing is designed to work with the video mode selected on the adapter is 34read34 at startup only so if you want to try a new mode its necessary to shut down change the dip switches and then start up again

The computer needs the new mode selected on the adapter at the time it powers on

If youre patient and do it that way youll avoid headaches thinking it doesnt work
