Re: What monitor do you use?

Amigaz wrote: I'm curious what monitor you use with your RETRO RIG I use the one in my signature. It's fantastic for both my Commodore obsession and my DOS gaming fun. It has a ton of ports (RCA, S-Video, VGA and DVI) and works for everything I have. I was lucky enough to find it at a Goodwill for …
