OK, I have a couple of Amiga 1080 monitors in use as video monitors
that still
look great, though not in use every day. Date to the late 1980s.

I do too! One of them is even stereo (1084S - 1989). Great for game
boxes and videos, though 13" is too small for me these days. ;^)
Interesting one of a kind monitor. It was actually a Commodore monitor
and could be used for C64, C128 and Amiga (and their PCs, for that
matter). It also had inputs for "IBM"(PC), TTL RGB, and linear RGB
(the pseudo S-video input the C64 used), in addition to straight
composite. But it couldn't deal with the A3000 deinterlacer, being a
15 kHz monitor. I designed our house on that monitor in Deluxe Paint.
Black on white single pixel width lines - talk about flicker! I was
REALLY glad to be done with them. ;^D
