RGB Technology of Berkeley, CA (415)848-0180 has a box that supposedly
works on all major UNIX workstations. I only saw it demoed on a Sun
3/60, but it looked like it was taking regular RGB cables for input
and output. The demo I saw was displaying an NTSC movie on a subwindow
on the Sun while other Sun demos were running simulataneously on the
same 3/60 screen. They've got another box for saving screen images also.
Cost was around 16K for the image saver, don't remember what the display
box ran.
