I'm a little confused about the VGA and Multisync computer monitor
standard.
I know that 15 pins are most common, the pinout being as follows:

I assume this is the pinout which works for all common PC monitors
sold today, right?
But several years ago I had an Nec Multisync II monitor which I used
with my Atari ST in order to display both video modes (highly
different sync rates). It had a 9 pin connector with the following
pinout:
http://www.repairfaq.org/REPAIR/F_Pinouts1.html#PINOUTS_012
The notes on that page say that it is "somewhat standard" -can someone
elaborate on this?
Is there a standard for Multisync monitors which is different from
(S)VGA monitors, or did older Multisync monitors have different
standards a while back whereas now Multisync and VGA monitors both use
the same type of connector and pinout?
