I've got a spare A2000 here if you need to supplement the herd

Whats so wierd about the A3000 anyway? it's a bit more resilient to hardware faults than the later stuff, but with a nicer spec than the older stuff

Oh, you A3000 weirdoes. I'd still be using my A4000 today if the CIAs hadn't been cooked! Now I'm stuck with anywhere between two and four A2000s of assorted stature, and an A1000 with no accessories.

(When I say assorted stature, I mean assorted stature. I've got everything from a VT2000 to a 386 card!)

Well, my A3000 has a built in scandoubler and a Cybervision64 ...

Bwahaha. A2320 Amber card. Salvaged from a university's dumpster. Two of them. Conventional VGA output.

Very nice - though PAL at 21" gives you pixels the size of elephants!

I've been using my A1200 on a Scart lead to my 28" widescreen telly, so ner Seriously though, I've got a 1084s and Philips scart monitor, and they're both great. I also had a 1701 from my Vic-20 days, and that was ok for games (it's gone to the monitor shop in the sky now, though).

I've got a Toshiba 21" TIMM I use with my A1200.

15 - 40 KHz horz
50 - 90 Hz vert

I also use it for my PS2 and cable TV. These were real popular a decade ago.

PLEASE NOTE: The regular Amiga video port output is 15KHz, almost VGA monitors only go down to 30KHz, so having a plain adapter won't work unless you switch the Workbench video mode to a higher one, and it won't work with any games at all no matter what you do (!)

The best solution is to get an old Commodore monitor (1084S 14" ones crop up on ebay all the time) or a Scart cable with a decent TV. The only other thing is to get a scandoubler which doubles the output frequency, however these are more expensive than a 2nd hand Commodore monitor or portable telly.

You should be able to find the adapter mentioned, but you could also have any custom cable place make an Amiga to SVGA cable.

Yes, my Amiga 4040 has one of those adaptators (Amiga sub db23 to usual vga).

I'm asking those who have a little knowledge about classic Amigas. I have an A1200 and an old PC monitor. But the PC monitor's cable is not fit in the Amiga's vide port. So is there any adapter or such or i have to buy an other monitor to use my Amiga?
