Ok all of you hardware savvy people... We've seen the discussion
(mostly on net.micro.amiga) about the pros & cons of interlace for
Hi-Res (640 x 400) for the Amiga. How much work will it take to get a
a video interface that is better resolution (1024 x 1024) or the same
resolution (640 x 400) w/out interlace? Would some daring third party
hardware manufacturer have to build an additional card to expand the
Amiga with, or is it possible to use the existing internal chips, or a
combination of both? I've included net.micro because some people who
may have some insight may read net.micro but not net.micro.amiga.
(as they say) Thanks in advance
Steve

Princeton Graphics builds a scan doubler for IBM-PC (and clones) which is close to what you need. I can't find the telephone number, but if you call them, they might be able to tell you how to adapt it. As for 1K x 1K, if the format is essentially fixed by the archetecture (I don't know), modification would be difficult and expensive. Look for adds in Byte, PC*****, etc. for #.
