It seems to work OK. No black and white. The manual states the TV
supports NTSC which seems to be v. similar to PAL60 (though not quite)
according to some forums I read.  Biggest problem is that in games like
Halo 3 the font is so small for things like remaining ammo it's hard to
tell how much ammo I have left and the aliens get me; yes things are
that bad!

So think I need to get an HD TV.  Trip to Richer Sounds might be in order.
