Stephen, A long-persistence RGB monitor (such as the Mitsubishi FA3425L9 or HC3905L9) will provide a stable image when in interlaced modes. Unfortunately, the long-persistence results in a "ghosting' phosphor trail on the screen during playback of animation. This is not, however, recorded to videotape. An additional limitation is an appropriate multisync long-persistence (or short even) monitor is going to cover the range 15-35kHz, which means that 1024×768 resolutions MUST be interlaced (800×600 non-interlaced is tops). One other thing: a long-persistence monitor is going to be RGB, no NTSC or S-VHS. The monitors that handle video & RGB are standard to short persistence – some flicker worse than others in interlaced RGB mode. Kevin Krell – Computer Support Associates
