Well as some of you may have guessed, I'm going to take C/A up on its
upgrade offer this time. (Although that rejuvanator sounds pretty good)
One of the things I will be left with after this deal is an 
A1300 Genlock. This is the original Amiga genlock that plugs in
under/behind the A1000. Mine is in excellent condition and cost $350
new. I've used it to do two "professional" presentations/videos and
find it's composite output to be superior to that of the built in
composite converter. Unlike the Amy-Gen and other budget genlocks this
one actually converts NTSC video into R, G, B video. That means that
you can see the genlocked signal on your monitor as well as send it
out to the VCR (this is a big feature). This also means that you can
use your RGB only monitor as a TV (assuming a source of TV video)
even if it wasn't originally equipped to deal with composite video.

I'd like to use the cash from selling this perfectly usable Genlock
to put a serious dent into the cost of an A2300 Genlock for my future
2000. Basically you can take it away for $200, best offers also considered
but remember I can use it on the 2000, it just looks funny hanging out
the back.

These opinions are my own and no one elses, but you knew that didn't you.
