Back a few years when I was working as a Security Officer in a
corporate office building, I wanted to take my IIgs into work with me
to play games and do a little work on the midnight and weekend shifts.

I ended up taking the computer with my mouse, keyboard, 3.5" drive and
a 5" black and white TV.  I connected the IIgs to the TV with an RF
modulator that I ripped out of an broken old pong type game.  I
powered both the TV and RF modulator from a 12V power supply.

The TV actually gave a surprisingly good image.  If the TV had been
colour, I imagine my results wouldn't have been as good but what I
used worked for me.
