ok, ok… I was just making sure you knew what the options were 🙂 To upgrade, at a minimum, you need a monitor capable of 31.5 Khz (VGA) connected to something like ICD's FFV (flicker free video). Then you would have one monitor using your RGB port at 15.75Khz (standard interlaced Amiga output) and another using the output from the FFV (deinterlaced). You should also consider upgrading your AGNUS so that you can address 1 meg of CHIP ram, (the AGNUS does not add any memory to your system, only changes how much of your memory can be used as 'CHIP' ram) and/or getting the full ECS (Enhanced Chip Set) to allow you to use all of the Amiga video modes (except the AGA modes). The FFV itself doesn't use any memory (as far as I know), it only deinterlaces the Amiga video signal and sends it out at 31.5Khz.
