[Coco] CoCo 3 to RBG...

[Steve Batson]

I do have an older Samsung LCD, not sure what model it is since I'm not at 
home right now. I'll check. I also have an NEC Multisync CRT monitor. It 
sounds like it might be worth building a cable and trying it on each unless 
there's risk of blowing something up.

Any LCD tv with a SCART input connector would be a prime candidate. I 
picked up a Samsung 730MW on eBay for $75. Does a great job with older 
15Khz. RGB computers. SCART plugs are not an over-the-counter item in the 
US, but easy to find (and cheap) on eBay.
