That's certainly true. But I think the original signal (not hooked to a
crap CM-8, mind you) looks pretty good, so why do we need to do any
better? 

I think the issue would come if the end product looked noticably worse
than a good quality analog RGB monitor hooked to coco 3.

My only real requirements for such a cc3 analog rgb -> rgb converter is
that it make a readable 80 column screen, the colors look good, and that
the price be less than $75...

As in any kind of engineering, we don't require perfection, it just has
to meet specified tolerance...
