I'm sorry, but you obviously either didn't use a A3000, or didn't plug
the multiscan monitor into the de-interlaced output of the A3000, as
opposed to the 15kHz ntsc output.  The shredding you saw in overscan
is a bug in the earlier display chips and was fixed in the new 
enhanced chip set (which by the way is in the 3000)
.

For some reason, I can't see this happening.  Especially the fact that
to the best of my knowledge, no Atari machine has a video slot, or
any expansion slots whatsoever for that matter.

Go ahead, flame me!!!
