Wouldn't this patent have expired by now, or are you just curious if it
was really a first at the time?
Does PAL use a different horizontal scan rate than NTSC? If so, perhaps
some sort of studio production computer interface would have had this ability.

Hello,
I'd be interested in hearing about prior art, provable and demonstrable,
that repudiates this:
There is a very old patent, 1982, that Compaq owns that they claim covers
any computer that displays more than one resolution on a monitor, using
different horizontal scan rates, where the resultant displays are the same
size on the monitor.
Any comments on machines that can disprove this claim?
Cheers,
Dan
