[Coco] SVGA monitor

[Derek]

I believe that the pricing in that link is wrong. I thought the price nearly doubled over the summer because Roy was loosing money when he made them at the $48 price point. It is still well worth the costs and very well made.

If I am wrong please let me know.

Unless that monitor can sync at 15.75Khz., you're going to need a scan converter.  Some of us (well, me anyway) have put together their own using a converter board manufactured for game and arcade machine upgrades.

If you don't want to go that route one of the group regulars, Roy Justus manufactures a suitable unit:
