If you have a monitor with VGA and either a SCART, SVHS or COMPOSITE input (an LCDTV for example) the choice is a little more difficult.

If you dont, then there isnt really any choice. You have to get a PicassoIV.

PicassoIV = ~£150 ($300)

Mediator A4000D = £205
Voodoo 3 PCI = £10
Internal Scandoubler = £100+
Monitor Switcher = £20
Total = £335 ($700)

Plus I am not sure a Mediator A4000D fits in the Micronik case which may mean you need a new case. Anyone know?

Ebay, they come up about twice a month.

Forums: Here, Amiga World, EAB etc. They all have a marketplace category for you to put a "WTD: Picasso IV" post
