I've never actually tried this one, but it should work; get one of
those Mac-VGA adaptors (NEC's and Sony MacView LX certainly work but
the latter would be a bit overkill), and stack it to your IIsi video
port. Be sure it returns the display id code of the Apple 13". IIsi
will happily think it has a monitor and boot.
