Here is another person with the Flicker Fixer addiction.  I have been running
an old original NEC Multisync monitor with my Amiga 2000 for over a year now
and it works just fine.  Who told you that Multisync monitors don't work with
the Amiga??  All I had to do was hack a cable..or, if you don't hack cables,
you can dial up Redmond Cable and they will hack it together for you..for a
nice fee I might add.

I have nothing against the Flicker Fixer except that it is a fix for a
non-problem and the fact that it will be rendered obsolete when the new Denise
with the 640x400 non-interlaced "Productivity Mode" comes out.  Don't waste
your hard earned $500 on a Flicker Fixer.
