Re: Display for Apple IIGS
I have seen a SCART->VGA, could you then rig this and be done?

with dying monitors, it's just beyond me why no one has been able to
come up with a scan converter that actually works properly for these
small systems. Doesn't seem like it's rocket science, particularly
with talented folks like Mike Mahon around :-).
The Micomsoft XRGB2+ does an excellent job with the IIgs RGB video. It
has since been discontinued and replaced by the XRGB3, both are very
hard to come by now. I was lucky to snag one when I did as none of the
typical console importers seem to be able to get them from Japan
anymore. Another option if you have a EDTV or HDTV is a SCART RGB to
component adapter. Cheaper and available from a US seller on ebay, just
need a 12V DC adapter for 110V US current.
