The color on the hi-res screens looks pretty good, but the vertical lines 
through the blocks on the lo-res screens isn’t quite right. The bottom 4 lines 
of text having color bleeding is normal, even on an Apple color composite 
monitor. The monochrome 80 column screen looks pretty good too.

Do you happen to have an old CRT TV around with composite input that you can 
hook up and compare to, just for yourself? I’ve got an Amdek Color I and Apple 
IIc Color Composite here that I’ll try to take some sample pictures of.
