#Monitor Choice?
Mike: That depends whether you would like to use System 2.0 or the standard
1.3 on your new 500. I do not have the 1084s, but I do have a Sony
KV-1311CR RGB analog monitor, and it has been fabulous. If you're going to
use System 2.0 you MUST have either an analog RGB monitor such as the 1084
or the Sony, or, better yet, a MULTISYNC monitor. A "super VGA" monitor of
the type used in the IBM world will NOT work properly with the Amiga,
except perhaps in "productivity" mode, but 99% of software runs only in
NTSC or PAL scan rates. An MS-DOS VGA monitor cannot support such scan
rates!
