Usual hang out for me is Atariage or EAB so references are there, will pay Paypal, from US would be best.

Sold my one ages ago (at a rather disgustingly huge profit I might add). I know that doesn't help you one bit does it but it does bump your post. :) Ain't I nice.

Have you put a WTB on Amibay yet? You probably should.

BTW, not sure if it's still happening but the indivision MK2 was rumored to have Graffiti emulation, could be another option for you when it comes out if that's still the case.

It's still in the plans.  Just recently, Jens was asked if the planned Grafitti support would be any faster, and he basically said (well, he said it technically, I understood it basically) that it will be the same speed.

So, it's still planned, but there's also still no release date...

Personally, I still really like my 1084 monitors..  When you get a Grafitti card, let me know how it works..  I don't know that I've ever seen an end user review...

The new external card do have Graffiti support, but I wanted the external version.
I just wanted to play with it a little bit.

Nemac IV and Trapped too, and a few others (some versions of Gloom but if I remember correctly, not all). Also the software includes an AVI player.

Quicker with a graffiti than AGA, yes. AGA machine with Graffiti quicker than OCS/ECS machine with Graffiti, yes. This is mainly because the single most limiting factor for the Graffiti itself is the speed of your chip ram however.

Sounds exciting! Can you please elaborate though? How can AGA games have Graffiti support?
