I have two Sun-3 systems with broken color monitors. They need new
flyback transformers (about $180 each), but Sun refuses to sell the
necessary part. They will repair the monitors, though, for only $1500
each.
I refuse to pay such extortion. I've been fighting Sun on this for a year
now, and I'm giving up on them. I would like to find some other way to
get my machines back into service. I'm thinking of using a PC multi-sync
type monitor on the Suns. Has anyone tried this? What monitors will, or
won't, work?
Thanks for whatever help you can give,
