At about the historical age of these computers every Macintosh Apple 
labelled monitor had standard and proprietary Mac only connectors. Older 
Mac monitors can be had for a song, (about the cost of a doorknob in Real 
Estate talk)

I do not believe these Macs, not being PowerMac based technology, will 
accept PCI monitor cards, though you could track down a toggle or switch 
box connector with a Mac connector on one end and a PC connector on the 
other. Set the dip switches correctly and you can connect a PC monitor.
