Competitive? That implies a competitor. Maybe the competitor is old CGA
monitors, or living with a CM-8? Personally I did fine for years with a
cheap monochrome monitor which gave a perfect 80 column display once I
gave up the living room floor connected to the family tv. Eventually my
brother had a CM-8 but he played games.

But I'd agree my own pain point for such a video adapter is probably
around $50 - $60 It would be cool to be able to connect my coco to video
kvm switch, I'd certainly pay something for that.
