If one should plan to acquire an Amiga but also a C128 to update the ol' trusty 64, what is the optimum monitor? It appears that the Amiga uses analog RGB as a monitor output. The C128 is alleged to have an RGBI output sometimes referred to as a "digital" RGB. How do these differ? What is digital about RGBI? Will the 1902 work with both the C128 and Amiga and have enough resolution fro both on for both? The demo Amiga I saw had a monochrome monitor hooked up and it looked rather good. I understand that the C128 will output to a composite monitor or monochrome monitor only in the 64 mode. The picture isn't clear, or perhaps my bandpass is too low. Any comments? Jere M.
