Thank you for the offer. I am going to pursue the VGA option as it seems the easiest way to go and I can use it with my current switching system

Glad a coco community member won the auction. I did win those 2 rainbow on Discs which were on ebay this week so that made me happy.

happy to send the cable to anyone who would be willing to reverse engineer 
it, if possible.  Maybe Mark Marlett would be interested, but he might have 
a similar cable he sells from Cloud-9.  Let me know if anyone would like to 
borrow this cable for awhile.
