wELL...let me tell you my experience..
i happen to live in one of the 2 countries in the whole world (i guessÇ),
that use PAL-N
And when i buy a computer from europe, which i think is PAL B. for example,
from Germany, i can only see it in black & white...no colour at all..
I use a transcoder pal-n-pal-whatever to be able to watch in full colours
everything...
Somebody told me that PAL-N is like a cheap version of original PAL...
Why my country adopted such a decision...well...yo have to go back to the
World Cup ´78....and ask technicians here and from Telefunken (the company
who brought PAL to Argentina specially for tv for the World Cup....) But
thats another story...
Just my 2 cents...
Regards
Sebastian
