<P>There is a catch with the  13W3 video connector that equips some 
of the framebuffers you may encounter.
One may try to plug it on a VGA monitor using an 13W3 to VGA adaptor that
is sold on the market. The problem is that SGI and Sun Microsystems do
not have the same definition of this standard and depending of the adapter
you buy, this may work or not (you know Murphy ...). As a rule, idealy you should
try it before you buy.
