Well, this would be so *IF* the MicroTV filled up the whole screen, but since
it is only in a DA sized window (from what I've heard) the output from the
NTSC hack would consist of your mac screen with a window containing your
mac screen with a window...ad infinitum.  Feedback would not occur.
(at least not in the sense of the screen being a solid color)
