Nec Multisync II monitor

I had one of these on my desk in '87 or so. They were shipped with an adapter
to the HD DE15 connector now common on VGA displays, but were actually sold into
the mature EGA market. They're certainly capable of 640x480, which is the
resolution at which I used the thing, and they did that rather well. I've heard
they're capable of 1Kx768 in interlaced mode, like the 3D. IIRC, 800x600 didn't
work, but I don't remember why. It could have been the adapter I used. Back
then you couldn't get much help with sync polarity.

I do recall that touching either of the screws at the upper right and left side
while allowing my then-massive paunch to contact the front of the screen, even
through a shirt and necktie, would yield a significant shock, by the way, so
beware!
