- We have a Radius VideoVision on a Quadra 950. It will drive almost any moitor,
- but it will only drive a 640x480 monitor at 24bit the rest are at 8 bit. But
- it isn't bad. It also has build in sound sampling(hardware). and it's bundled
- with some Macromedia software(Director I think). In anycase, it's a good
- product. Will out to RCA or s-video. Does convolution(means that it will
- fuzz sharp gradients so that it doesn't jiggle due to NTSC interlacing).
-
- Of course you can get better stuff(just costs a H*LL of a lot more)
