Yup, it's RGB, sync on green. You need to get a cable to break that out
to 3 BNCs to hook it up to a decent monitor that does sync on green... if you
don't have such a thing, you should look for the IBM monitor that was hooked
up to the machine. Fortunatly, if you've got a decent monitor and can find
the cable (maybe in the region of where you found the machine) you should be
able to just hook up that and a PS/2 KB & mouse and have something working
pretty quick :)
