Hi, I just got something in the mail from a company called Folsom Research advertising a board that can be plugged into a 9000-3x0, which will convert the rgb signal into something that can be used by a TV or VCR. A board like that would come in really handy for me, since I do simulations of biologically realistic neural networks and display the output using fancy graphics on a TurboSRX, and it's a problem saving the graphics in a form I can show to people. On the other hand, it's a lot of money ($5900) to lay out for a piece of hardware I don't know anything about. Does anybody have any advice? Is this a good product, and are there other things around that do the same job? I'd appreciate any information anybody can give me. Please reply by e-mail; if anybody is interested enough to send me mail saying so, I'll summarize to the net. (On the other hand, requests for confidentiality will be respected.) Thanks, Bill Skaggs

Bill: My customer bought one to hook up to a large screen projection system and he seems to think the board does a pretty good job. The system requires no effort to get running, he had the display up in about 10 minutes. I was able to get a loaner from Folsom to try the card out. You might want to do the same. tonyc
