Thanks, people.

Yeah, I should've mentioned my CRT (which is a late 1990's chunky
AOC model) always has its analog brightness at max, no matter what.
I just think we can be too demanding of old systems.

I hope the brightness change in Dosbox doesn't happen in
modern systems or I'll be thoroughly disappointed. I don't
see that change when I use other emulators (well, not
with Gens, and I'm talking of my old CRT again). It's very
head-scratching, that problem.

But really, the best solution (for an old CRT) is to config
Dosbox to current resolution: you get the clearest results,
and in fact I think I should have used this in the past,
because it all looks better than ever, now. It almost feels
like discovering SVGA over VGA. I'm surely exaggerating,
but it's like I wiped-clean an old dusty monitor after I
do this.


Cheers!
