My time is worth more than money. If I can buy a thing for $90 and have it installed and working in 15 minutes, vs. posting questions on forums, buying two or three $20 cables, moving the TV, plugging them in, unplugging, pushing buttons and trying different settings, going back and reading more forums, etc., etc.

TL;DR. If I can buy a thing that "just works" verses di**ing around for two or three hours trying to kludge together a poorer quality solution, I consider myself having saved money.
I have also found that in the amiga world..."poor" equals I don't want to spend MY money.

LOL.  Ain't that the truth.  I've reached the age in my life where I have more money than time, and will gladly spend it on things that I enjoy.  Amiga is not a cheap hobby.  Go build houses out of popsicle sticks or something, if you want a cheap hobby.  :laughing:
"Funny" story SACC sells tested used donated amiga (a 1080) stuff at AmiWest.
I was at the SACC table where a user asked how much? I said $20 us.

He said too much... (LOL) kind of
