I went and bought a 2320.  It took some doing, but I scraped up enough $$s to
get the card and a monitor.  I work at a catalog showroom, so I bought one of 
the monitors that we sell (discount and all), the Packard Bell TriSync (PB8510SV)
which is supposed to be a multiscan.  Okay, life is cool.  I got the 2320, and
it works fine in "active mode."  I have no real problem with the 1/2 scan line
of flicker, and I can live with the right side border thing.  I tried to shut
off the 2320 (switch in the back) and it goes nuts.  CATS said "Board's busted,
take 'er back" and despite the drive I took it back after work.  They plopped it
in and it worked fine.  Grr... Okay, so its either my computer or the monitor.  I was thinking that maybe the TriSync won't (forgive my lack of understanding of
how a multisync works) wont `scan low enough' and isn't quite dealing with the
15k(?) signal.  The only real reason I can think of to go back to normal Amiga
video is to use Overscan normally.  I got a really good deal on the monitor, but
there's a store "return it in 30 days for any reason" warranty, so I can get my
money back.  There was another Packard Bell (800x600) that we sell that's also
a multiscan.  Would this one be better?  Any ideas?  Thanks

BTW, I _LIKE_ the 2320.
