Hello netland! I am seriously considering getting an Amiga 500 (maybe 2000??) in the near future, I was wondering if I can use my IBM RGB color monitor with the Amiga Computers, the monitor's input is not Analog, the manual calls it "TTL level R.G.B.I". Any info would be greatly appreciated, send replies to: pan@kursa.usc.edu Thanks in advance! ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Jason C.

The catch is that you will only be able to display 16 of the 4096 colors the Amiga offers. --- ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Jason C.
