I use an All-in-Wonder Pro at 800x600 fed into a TIM3 UHF modulator and
I'm really quite impressed with the image quality. With a reasonably
sized font, it's perfectly readable both on the main TV in the living
room and the 14" in the master bedroom. I'd definitely recommend it.
One
word of warning, though; in order to support video output, the refresh
rate must be set for 'hardware default' which is a slow interlaced rate.
Great output on the TV - lots of flicker on the monitor. However, this
is FAR preferable to my previous experiences with one of the Velocity
cards that could output video or monitor but not both (not useful when
the nearest TV's in the next room!).
