The picture was refreshingly sharp in 640 x 256 (I had a PAL A1000) and almost usable in interlace mode. Them old monitors have long persistence phosphor screens! Unfortunately, the monitor did not display all colours (due to the digital input). To do this, I had to invert the signals of the digital Red, Green and Blue outputs from the A1000 with a NOT chip. Buy a chip prototype board & a chip socket if you don't want to burn the chip with your soldering iron. --- Soh, Kam Hung email: h.soh@trl.oz.au tel: +61 03 541 6403 Telecom Research Laboratories, P.O.
