I'm about to find out!

I got a clearance item at JDR which is called a "Cheese Video Box"
(no kidding) which is intended to convert NTSC signals, like video games,
to VGA.  I has a switch (sort of a "game-PC" switch) to pass through
PC VGA or to send the converted video to the monitor.

I'm about to try it out and see how it works with an Apple II. I'm very
interested in how it handles the colors...

I think the original price on this was around $90, but I picked this one
up for $32.  With any luck it wasn't thrown down stairs.  ;-)
