Beauty!

Thanks for the test and tune session and the report!

Did you use the mini-plug input to the LCD from the Apple // composite out?

And when you say NTSC-scan RGB do you mean analog, like what would
work on a IIgs or Digital like the output of a //e RGB card?

So in essence, would you say: compared to a C-VUE or the original //c
flat-panel display, a 5" Sony PS1 LCD is an *acceptable* alternative
for portability with a //c application that doesn't require 80 columns for
the software it's going to run?

If so, I gotta go log into eBay and get one or two!
