  Any suggestions on good framegrabbers to get to connect to a A500?
I have a old NewTek DigiView digitizer, but it seems a little slow for 
some of the kind of work I want to do. In particular it has some problems
grabbing frames from my Sony SuperVHS deck. 
  Also, do I need any special hardware (buffers, etc) to output a video
signal from my A500 directly out to a VCR? is there any way to improve 
signal quality by using some sort of interface cable to connect to the 
seperated chroma, luma, etc signals for SuperVHS?

It's times like these that I wish I had bought a A2000 and paid a little
extra for the expansion slots...
