I'm right on the edge of buying an Amiga 500, but I want to
ask a couple of questions first. I'm planning to do some non-standard
things, and I want to make sure they work.
1) I want to use a Multi-sync moniter. (Maybe Princeton
Graphics new monitor--it's got a (theoretical) dot pitch of
.28mm which is pretty good.) Does this REALLY work?
2) I want to use my IBM PC/XT Miniscribe Hardcard. Think
I'll be able to plug this into a WEDGE board? (Incidentally,
if Dave Allen, the WEDGE guy, wants to send me an Ad, I'd be
forever in his debt)
3) I want to get an internal memory expansion board. Are
there any third party ones with more than 512K (this is for a 500,
remember)
Grazie.

(Maybe Princeton > Graphics new monitor--it's got a (theoretical) dot pitch of > .28 mm The folks at Princeton Graphics haven't tested the Ultrasync with an Amiga yet. They tell me that they have someone lined up to bring in an A2000 for testing. I'm hoping they'll make an appearance at the JAUG meeting this month - I did get their literature today: Scan: 15-35KHz horizontal, 45-120Hz vertical Dot Pitch: .28mm Resolution: 800x600 maximum Text Switches: Green, amber, cyan, white on blue Tilt and swivel base, non-glare etched screen with dark tinted glass. CRT: 12" diagonal Display Size: 215mm x 160mm Video Bandwidth: 30Mhz Infinite display colors, Analog and TTL inputs 1 year parts and service warranty I did get a look at the Sony CPD-1302 on a Mac II last night - and it was very sharp. I'm waiting for more information on both the Sony and the MultiSync II.

I've been using a Princeton Graphics Ultrasync with my A500 for 2 weeks now, and I have no complaints whatsoever. Stuart Pierce
