Hello,

Phil Blundell and John Kortink both commented on my claimed 0.2 second lag 
using the RGB to VGA converter. While I can admit the figure was a little 
taken out of the air, the lag was clearly noticable on a game such as Sonic 
the Hedgehog on the Megadrive. While this is not a BBC Micro game, 
techincally RGB from the Beeb won't travel faster than RGB from the Sega 
console, will it? :-)

Like I wrote, your milage may vary and VGA output might actually be 
tolerable, although John at Blipit wrote his solution gives a so-so image on 
a good day. As the converter on eBay should handle CGA, I suppose it takes 
TTL level inputs so that is not a factor to consider.

Anyway, at ?23 + shipping (probably possible to find even cheaper if you 
order from Asia) it is not a lot of money to lose for anyone willing to try 
it themselves.

Best regards

Anders Carlsson
