I picked up a Commodore monitor about 2 months ago, but have been waiting until i move next month to get my RGB grove on...

Where did you find the RGB cables for the older consoles?

I make many of mine. Order $3 Scart cables, cut off the Scart ends, and attach what you need.

And yes, you never go back. You just can't.

Ditto to everything said here.

Make sure to play Contra: Hard Corps on your new setup. It's an absolute joy in RGB.

Check Wells Gardner. I don't know if that's what he has, but I got a 27 inch multi-sync that sounds quite similar to that from WG.

Slightly off topic - on older games, specifically alot of genesis and TG-16 stuff there are dark single-line "spaces" between rows of pixels (check the backgrounds in those Phelios shots, for instance). What are those called? Because I loved those things for some reason.

scanlines. I belive when you use the XRGB they are fake "simulated" scanlines. If you hook up RGB straight to a propper 15 hz analogue monitor, you get real scanlines.

Right. XRGB-2 has an option to generate fake scanlines. At first I didn't like them, as they seemed to make the image look darker than it would with real scanlines. However, I later found them to be very preferable to the overly pixelated line-doubled look that low-res games have without them.
