So does the Picasso II act as a flicker fixer as well?
« on: September 14, 2008, 06:05:26 AM »
I read the description on the Big Book website, and it seems to indicate that it does *not* act as a flicker fixer, but it still will connect to a VGA monitor?  

..it says it requires Workbench 2.0... will it just pass through for 1.3?  Thanks.

yes, it's just a passthrough, though it's very useful. without a no passthrough card you need an external monitor switcher (or two monitors).

the reference to workbench 2.0 is about cybergraphx/picasso96 I guess. The passthrough works regardless of OS, but I don't think you can use picasso 2 modes on 1.3.
I believe in mt. Fuji

I doubt it works under 1.3 the way it's suppose to.
...so if it won't work for what you need, box it up and send it to me.  :-D

Well, if you've got $168 bones, you can get one (listed AS-IS, though) with a network card (only 10BaseT, though) and an AMAX II on BuyItNow:

ebay

I'm was only interested if it could be a flicker fixer/scan doubler.  Good luck!
