Yes, I'm planning to. The Flicker Fixer, and other de-interlacers that
are supposed to be coming RSN, are the big reason that I got the
Multisync. (The fact that I only paid $225 was also a big reason!)

But until the price on the Flicker Fixer comes down considerably from
$600, or my computer fund makes a drastic jump, I'll be without a
Flicker Fixer. (Why $600? At $200, I'd buy it. At $300, I'd think about
it, then buy it. At $600, well... I guess flicker isn't all THAT bad.)

But until the day I get a Flicker Fixer, isn't there ANYTHING I can do
to get interlace to work right (besides put the NEC back in the box,
and use the old 1080 again)?
