I'm thinking of buying an american A3000 system for use over here in France. Obviously I need a voltage transformer (220V-->110V). But I also wonder if a 1950 monitor sold in the USA will work correctly when using PAL screens? Do the software NTSC<-->PAL mode switchers really work? Or will I need to hack the hardware slightly to get a PAL display? I hope the 3000 is as nice as everybody says, since I haven't even laid eyes on the real thing yet:-) -- Frank Anthes-Harper : Bien le bonjour de la France anthes@geocub.greco-prog.fr

The screens look good. Terry LaGrone
