The review states: The video board allows an alternate display format, which could be used to provide an interlaced display of 640 by 525 pixels, but no information is provided on specific programming for that purpose. (p. 100) I have often lamented the fact that many video displays (such as the IBM PC) only go up to 400 lines vertically when 480 would have permitted a square aspect ratio (so important when dealing with digitized images as I often do). Does anyone have any information about this capability in the Zenith machine? Thanks.
