Maybe I'm missing something. Do these convert 1024x1024 60-72Khz rate screens
down to 15Khz VHS Pal? if they do VGA->VHS then you're looking at an X
window of 600x400 which is a whole lot different. Of course, if this is
a viable solution we'll be in it as well. What I proposed is more generic
and lets you dump high-end workstations as well as VGA...
Confused...
