I think I'll bring in an Apple IIc to play games on during downtime.

I need to transfer more of my A2 software to 3.5" floppies so I can use the IIc+ instead. (Plus I need a IIc-compatible joystick.)

I use a tv tuner card or a TV

fact is if its composite its pretty much going to suck, if you have a monitor (ie high rez vs crap tv) it will be better (at mono) , but still

one of the projects on the books is to tap into the // series video generation circuit

but its currently at # 5 (so dont go holding your breath) otherwise have fun!

(the good thing about the IIc series is that the "rgb" port that exports every single signal except for rgb has a pin for serial data that is the pixel dot clock in a nice ttl format, sans color of course)

My 24" Dell LCD a has composite input. I have connected my Apple IIe to it. It was kind of neat.

I've also connected my Mac IIsi to my 50" DLP TV. That was neat also. The icons were like an inch tall.

Haha. My Apple IIe is at home, but it has a color composite monitor. By the way, the video output from those looks quite nice on a decent 23"-25" CRT television.
