idk about the pain. IMHO it's pure FUD. Generally speaking, it just works. Literal plug and play. And I'm not saying this randomly. I have had my OSSC for year

idk about the pain. IMHO it's pure FUD. Generally speaking, it just works. Literal plug and play. And I'm not saying this randomly. I have had my OSSC for years, and I use it with ample variety of hardware, including PC8801, PC9801, Amiga, MSX, IBM PC clones (8086, 486, Athlon) and the usual console suspects. With adjustment, it works to perfection. For the Amiga (and only the Amiga) I did input pixel perfect timings. It's easy and, on that platform, it makes a difference. These timings seem good on both OCS/ECS and AGA. I can hardly justify it, but I love my OSSC enough that I am planning on a OSSC Pro in the future. That way I will be able to divide my hardware across two rooms.
