[comp.sys.amiga.hardware] De-Interlacing with a non-interlacing monitor

lcs@remus.rutgers.edu (Lyle C. Seplowitz) (03/18/91)

I saw an ad in an issue of Byte magazine (December 1990, pp. 165-167) for
the non-interlaced monitor, Optiquest 2000. This sounds like the perfect
solution to the flixer problem on the Amiga, no need for a flixer
fixer. But can this monitor be used on the Amiga? Does anyone have any
idea how much it cost?

Can a VGA monitor be used with the Amiga? If so, can anyone recommend
a model? If I wasn't able to get or use the Optiquest 2000 monitor,
can a de-interlacer be used with a VGA monitor or do you need a
multi-sync monitor? What if I just bought a multi-sync monitor without
a flixer fixer, will this improve the display? Can anyone recommend a
good multi-sync monitor?

Now, if I need a flixer fixer, which is the best one? I haven't heard
much about Commodore's version, but I think it also has a display
enhancer to remove the visible space between scan lines (a plus)? What
about "Flicker Free Video"? Is it any good?

One more question, has anyone heard anymore about Commodore's new
graphics board? It is suppose to support 24-bit color and better
displays. Can anyone give me more information about it?

Thanks :)
Lyle
