I suspect this Commodore has about as much to do with the one we know and love as Atari does now. Though at least Atari is still used to sell games.

Its sad that names that once meant something are just bought and sold like this.

I have long since thought it was narrow minded of PC manufacturers to not have at LEAST an RGB SCART input on VIVO/TV Tuner cards.  More interesting perhaps would be a VGA input so you can capture the output of one PC on the other one, or in this case output from the scandoubler on the Amiga.

If someone DID create a VGA input card for a PC they could even support none standard rates so it could become a scandoubler itself.  Its not as if scandoublers are a complicated technology, its just there isnt a huge market for them so they cost a lot.

The closest I have seen is this http://www.cwcembedded.com/products/0/4/312.html which im betting DOES cost a lot.  :-o
