You CAN get a $15 scandoubler, but they are 16-bit. Great for OCS, sucks for AGA.

hmmm...

/me suddenly becomes interested in NOS  :-)

Have you ever seen flicker on a flat panel TV??

As I've never connected an Amiga to one, no, I haven't. If you have a flat TV, connect your Amiga with composite and tell me what you see.

Are you referring to Amiga interlace mode flicker, or just the general kind of flicker seen on any CRT with any input signal?

If you have then you have managed to find a VERY special kind of TV... unlike any I have ever seen...

As far as I can tell, any and all flat panel TVs completely eliminate flicker.

Kind of. As Iggy_Drougge pointed out, yes, LCD gets rid of 50/60 Hz flicker since there's no electron beam refresh. Laced modes *will* look funky on LCDs though (at minimum motion artifacting), and that has little to do with the monitor, but rather the signal it's being fed. Decent LCD TVs will deinterlace the signal, but your average PC LCD will not.

Once again I shall refer to the wiki...
