I'm trying to plug the amiga as a good machine for doing an interactive
information dispenser (what the heck do you guys in the US call these
things?:-).


One of the questions I've had a hard time answering is:

OK, it looks good, but can we hook up a second monitor to it?
This monitor needs to be able to do text (with accents) in color
(graphics not necessary).

Now the only solution I've come up with so far (okay call it a kludge:-),
is to stick a brideboard in to a 2000, and then add in an external
cga interface card.

Does anyone have any better ideas? Cost is important, so no 16M
color frame buffers need apply:-)
