Tried a SM-2032MW today, picture quality looked liked the Samsung
T220HD but had serious motion blur and refocus when moving the mouse
around, so avoid that model for use with a IIGS with RGB Scart. Also
tried a couple of small 15 inch LCDs by Philips and Polariod all
looked about as good as composite..search continues...
