You can use modern LCD's with A3000 without an Indivision ECS.

You just use an NTSC screen mode both in Workbench and WHDload and the built in AMBER chip will output 60Hz.

PLUS in doing so you do not compromise the smoothness of the scrolling (unlike displaying PAL50@60Hz).

IMO HiGFX mode is the only reason to want an Indivision ECS for use with an A3000, but if anyone can think of any other reason, I'm listening.
