MacVGA™ - connects PowerBooks to VGA monitors for under $25
EL CERRITO, CA --- 26.Oct.92 --- James Engineering is pleased to announce
MacVGA for Apple® Computer, Inc.'s new Macintosh PowerBook 160 and 180
computers. MacVGA for the PowerBook 160 and 180 is designed to increase
“portable productivity” by providing low cost color VGA connectivity to
hundreds of VGA monitors and VGA compatible presentation display products such
as video overlay projection panels and CRT projectors.
PowerBook 160 and 180 - video output
A significant difference from the PowerBook 160 and 180 notebook predecessors
is the addition of a video output port. Supporting all Apple monitors, the
PowerBook 160 and 180 on-board video circuitry can also support VGA monitors
with the addition of a specially designed low cost adapter, the MacVGA.
With an estimated installed base of tens of millions of VGA monitors used with
Intel based personal computer systems; new PowerBook users can now have access
to larger display devices in more locations without the need to carry a
separate monitors.
MacVGA - the video adapter for VGA monitors
“With the demand for desktop presentations and users needing a desktop display
solution, the new PowerBooks are ideal.” said Beverly James, co-founder and
President of James Engineering. “With our MacVGA video adapter, we offer an
easy low cost way for bringing color to the 160 and 180 user."
With its compact size (1.8” x 1.7” x .6”) and weighing less than an ounce, the
MacVGA is designed for mobile as well as desktop usage. The MacVGA plugs
directly into the auxiliary video cable of the 160 and 180 to accept a standard
VGA monitor cable. The MacVGA has a suggested retail price of $25.00.
The MacVGA joins the family of VGA monitor adapters from James Engineering for
the Macintosh LC, LC II, Macintosh Performa™ 200, PowerBook Duo™ (DeskBar and
docking station), and Macintosh Quadra™ computers.
