What's the difference between line-doubling & interlace anyway?? I think what Len is possibly trying to get at (correct me if I'm wrong Len 8-) is this. is the VGA mode capable of being displayed on a normal TV/colour monitor, and is this what the overscan makes possible? (e.g. the VGA 320*240*256 mode) - is this mode just the falcon 320*200*256 mode with overscan being used on the vertical resolution to get the extra 40-pixels? So, basically - is it possible to use a normal TV or monitor (colour of course) to displayer the 'normal' resolutions, AND the VGA resolutions, or is a VGA monitor *required* for the VGA res's?? I'd like to have this explained as well - although I'm unlikely to buy a Falcon, due mostly to being poor 8-( ============================================================================= | O O If I told you how much I needed this, | ||| | | o I wouldn't have time to eat it.
