Henry, I haven't seen the Panasync C1391 or a spec sheet for it. Perhaps you can post some of the particulars for it here. If you want a general purpose monitor, i.e., one that would be usable for standard Amiga RGB as well as the de-interlaced modes, you'll need to look for a monitor that will sync at 15KHz and 31KHz. Some of the available multi-sync monitors will not go down to 15KHz. As far as how they work with overscan, I'm not certain that there's any spec on the sheet that will tell you. The NEC 3D is also 1024×768 (and is a very fine monitor – I use one at work), but will not handle overscan very well. If your usage requires overscan, then perhaps the best advice is to attempt to try one on an Amiga somehow, or ask here for experiences on that particular monitor. Another possible check is to call Redmond Cable to see if they make an adapter for that monitor to the standard Amiga 23-pin video RGB connector. If they've made a cable for somebody, they may have some knowledge about how the monitor handles overscan. Hope this helps. 8) David
