Re: 1080 vs 1084

At some point back when I wrote for a Commodore/Amiga user group, I had a list of makers for the 1804 that was way over a dozen long. It came from Commodore. That included the D and S models too.
I lost my archive of this newsletter. I have just put out feelers to see if any of our old members still this article with the list included.
 I still have both 1080 and 1084S units that all work fine. I tend to prefer the 1080 though. They seem to have consistently better color over all modes.

I should add that the last batch of 1084 monitors did away with the composite connections, since all of the eight bit Commodore machines had been canceled ages back.
