Larry, I remember setting Digiview head to head with the parallel port and the A2000 connector was about 2/16'' higher than the digiview one. So, it should be about 9/16'' or more, which is plenty for both. Of course all we need to really find out is a 2000!! (C-A are you listening!!) On the other hand, I am known to go crazy with my Dremel (mini drill) tool. So go ahead, make my day!! 🙂 Bill. PS. Here is the latest rumor from Comdex. C-A talked (showed??) about a 640×480 NON-INTERLACE board, fully compatible with the 640×400 mode available for the 2000 by the end of the year. They said it will be shown at the fall Comdex show.

Intersting Bill. I only looked at the A2000 connector, and it looked lower than the one on the A1000, but of course it may have only looked that way because of the increased height of the 2000. Regards, Larry.

It is Larry, but you got to remember that both the A-Time and Digiview fit above the genlock hole so you will have to compare them from that point on. Regards Bill!!

Bill, I don't know about DigiView, but the original A-Time fit the Amiga with the overhang "down" or over the GenLock hole. Later version pointed "up" and hung up over the top of the Amiga, but left the GenLock hole open. The only reason I know this, is we have 1 of each version. Don
