I'm sure. I wired one up to an A5000 Archimedes, but have never seen it in laced mode.
Megaroids in color looks like it's running somehow in laced mode on the ST, but it's apparently horizontal lacing of a sort -- but I can't see scanlines while it's running. Very odd.

No! In fact, Ultima III runs in both monochrome high-res (640x400) with assets to match, as well as color low-res (320x300 16-colors). I rebooted the system during the photo capture (to make it easy and not have to touch the camera (phone), I took a video and pulled two frames and merged them).

Awesome. I want one of these so badly for my A1000. I would absolutely add a video card and a second monitor to it - maybe mono Hercules.
