So this year I found another solution, actually found it on an Amiga forum, they recommended the GBS-8220. I just ordered it from Jamma Boards for $40, which is less than half of the Ambery box. I will post pictures of this unit when I get it. I'm hoping the Finder artifacts will be resolved! http://www.jammaboards.com/store/rgb-cga-ega-yuv-to-vga-converter-pcb-gbs-8220/prod_291.html
YMMV, but I have one of those and it doesn't work as well as you might hope on a IIgs.
The Highway 100 / CYP CM-345S is the only converter I've personally used that displays the Finder free of artifacts. I bought one of these from Converters.tv in Oz at full ticket (ouch), then was lucky enough to find a second CYP-branded unit on eBay for < $100 US (never be without a spare).
They also do a bang-up job on Amiga video. Steve
