There is something about displaying amiga images and animations from a real amiga on a 1084 that still makes me go "wow". The colors seem so vibrant, especially some of the hand drawn art, and I think the luminance distribution of the crt pixels helps to anti-alias and blend the image giving the perception of higher resolution and color depth than there really is. certainly the same images on a VGA monitor do not pack the same oomph!! In terms of animating, the quarter pixel scrolling on Scala running o a 1084 is the smoothest text scrolling I've witnessed anywhere, period. Ditto with wipes and fades.
