If I wanted to get a hold of a european computer, 220v, 50hz PAL with RBG,
then?
1) would it work an an RGB monitor.
You would have to check out the frequency of
the original monitor and
make sure you can match that on a Local one, check out the peak to peak
voltage for the signal also, some are 1V peak to peak others are 0.7V
peak to peak. Also the polarity and voltage of the Synch signal might be
different.
2) if the machine just used a poweradapter like 9v, like the old atari's is
the 50/60hz thing that critical?
if the power adapter delivers 9VDC you should be
in good shape, if it is
9VAC then you might want to find out if any of the AC juice is used
before the bridge and regulator.
Im looking into a Spectrum128, or Russian Scorpion.
What do you all think?
