Sounds like the CBM mono board is actually a custom monitor
with a converter board built in. I haven't seen the board, but
from what I heard it sounds like a cluge – you wind up using
the Amiga's memory bandwidth to get the full screen display, IE
system performance is degraded same as it would be in a HI-RES
16-color display. Also, screen update is at 15 HZ's (it takes
4 frames to update the display). Guess I'll refrain from
further speculation 'till I actually see it C-:
