The Hitachi monitor supports higher resolution modes (Such as NEC Multiscync, Mitsubishi Diamond Scan, etc). I was curious to see my Amiga display on a screen larger than 13 inches. And if this method worked, I could hook my Amiga up to one of our large screen projectors and project my Amiga's screen output to a wall sized screen! The prospects of playing certain games, such as Falcon, or Flight Simulator on a wall sized screen is very tempting! Joe (Joe@bryans.scc.com)
