Don't have one yet, but looking into it.

No, if run at the native game resolution on a multi-sync, the games should look arcade perfect.

What about a PC multisync monitor?

Can you give a link (I'm not too familiar with PC multisync monitors)?  I'm guessing if its max resolution goes much above 800x600 (ie smaller dot pitch) it won't look as good (but that's just a guess).  Hopefully someone more knowledgeable can answer this...

I think the advantage here, (and maybe Andy should clarify it a bit in his marketing texts) is that we're no longer stuck with "signal out of range" when we're trying to set up software on a PC monitor. To me THAT is the advantage here.

Also rlemmon, why don't you turn on the scanline effects and all that to simulate arcade monitor blur?

I tried using scanlines it didn't make any difference. Also the ultimarc site says scanlines should be turned off.

The bottom line is don't buy hardware if you're not sure about what it does  :)
