Hi,

     I'm sure the monitor will work, but either the 640x400 screen modes will end up using only the center of the LCD about 6" x 4" or the monitor will do an "expand" to make the lo-res image fill the entire screen - when doing that it will get a bit fuzzy.  From my experience you may also have to adjust the little "fine adjustment" knob (thingy beside the de-interlace switch next to the video out port on the A3000) in order to eliminate the screen jitters.

Regardless, it will work and I'm sure you'll like the display.

Hi,

     Yeah, there aren't many Amiga monitors left that look as crisp as the new ones available today.

     I don't know if you have had any issues with the screen "tearing" along the sides during screen refreshes at all.  But that little knob adjustment makes it disappear - that's most likely going to be the biggest issue you'll have - if at all.  Enjoy your new toy!
