5123.0. "Can you upgrade an A500 to VGA display quality?" by HURON::MYERS () Wed Oct 16 1991 11:54

    So all this talk about the Amiga being a superior graphics machine, how
    come all these PC/VGA machines look so much better than my Commadore 1084?
    Actually, I know why.  What I don't know is can I upgrade my A500 to
    have a similar display quality?  Who?

If you don't already have a 1MB Fatter Agnus, you'll want that upgrade also.
