vgavideo outputdb 15scan doublerntscpaladapter

Converts the Apple IIc family's digital video expansion output to 720x480 VGA.

The vendor page listed A2VGA as out of stock on 2026-07-24. Its 720x480 output may not work with some older VGA monitors. Earlier hardware was NTSC-only, so confirm the revision when buying used. Do not connect it to an Apple IIgs or Macintosh merely because those machines also have 15-pin video ports; the manual warns that doing so risks damage.

joystickmidimpu 401db 15doswindows

Breaks out a vintage PC gameport for two joysticks plus simultaneous MIDI input and output.

The JCM page showed six units in stock on 2026-07-24. MIDI requires an MPU-401-compatible gameport, such as one on an appropriate Sound Blaster 16-era card or clone. The required male-to-female DB-15 cable is not included; a bottom insulating plate is included.
