I think you're wrong there! I bought a scandoubler for my Amiga 500 thinking it would look better and I was horribly disappointed. Everything ends up looking chunky and dull. Scan-lines on those old 1084 monitors actually improve the look of the low-res graphics in non-interlaced modes. Also, because they are less crisp than modern monitors, colours blend together for a smoother look. There is a nice glow to pixels on the 1084 that modern monitors don't have.


I couldn't have said it better myself. A dedicated old-school Amiga games system benefits from a C=1084 monitor or equivalent. :-)
