I do have cheap VGA monitors in use, including a flatscreen one.  The 
VRT19-HA is really nice, big, excellent picture, and already here, so I 
thought why not use it?  I don't think I have a converter.

It was a great monitor for VAX and the 3000 Alpha.  I'll keep it in case 
I ever use those again.  Would make a great "X-terminal" for having 
several windows to log in elsewhere.
