I was trying to go for an authentic setup for my A1000 with the 1080, but it seems like I'll be just complicating things (black border/flicker) needlessly.
Well, the border issue (I had forgotten about that, but I remember now someone mentioning that before in another thread) sounds like it might be worked around with some adjusting..
Could be annoying if you swap between NTSC/PAL a lot, but if you are just sticking with PAL software, might not be an issue when you get it adjusted..
And the flicker....
er..
That IS "authentic!" :-)
I did recently get my 1200 on an LCD, but my 500 and 1000 are on 1084s monitors and I don't mind interlace.... NTSC interlace!!

Apparently it bothers some people more than others...
And for me, it's what I had back in the day, and I want authentic.

(I would have kept my 1200 on a 1084s, but desk space is getting to be a problem, and I only have the 2...)
