>connect an IBM 8516 touchscreen I'll bet the answer is "maybe". I've got an IBM 8515 on order from a refurb company, and if the 8515 is just the 8516 without the touchscreen, then they share one thing that makes it difficult to use with the new Amigas: the don't have the ability to sync to 15khz. The minimum sync rate is 31khz for the 8515, therefore the initial boot screens would be jumbled, and the GURU screens would be jumbled as well. On the other hand if you've got a dedicated application in mind for these computers, this "flaw" may not be that serious.
