Depends on what you mean by "regular monitor".

The Apple ][e requires an NTSC composite video monitor.  If you are a
video person, that is a regular 'ol monitor.  

If you are a computer type, though, who thinks that a regular 'ol monitor
is VGA, then you could say the Apple requires a "special" monitor.  But
chances are you already have one that will work.

Look at the back of your TV set.  If you have a VIDEO jack, you can plug
in there.  Or, if you have a VCR, you can hook to the VIDEO IN on the back
of the VTR.  

Apple sold some really nice monitors for the ][, in both monochrome and
color.  But virtually any decent NTSC monitor will work.
