This is a surprise...but a good one.  Besides RGB output, only being able to
grab/display images was my only real gripe about this board...well, and the
signal.  I installed one in a 2000HD at a local TV station, and it looked
really hairy on their vectorscope...but there's other hardware to correct
this.
 
DCTV and HAM-E are external boxes like IMPULSE's VD-1...DCTV is full 24bits at
full video resolution...HAM-E has less color, and HAM capable resolutions
(320 x 200 to 384 x 480), or 256 grey HiRes.
 
If Mimetics decides to throw in the paint package with their board, it could
be very attractive to potential customers for the above products, if they
don't want an external device.  I've seen them selling for about $411, minus
RAM...
