16.036 Can I replace my Apple II composite monitor with a PC VGA monitor?

         Yes; you can use a VGA-Box (or "V-Box"). It accepts 4 composite video
inputs (NTSC or PAL) and 1 VGA input.  The output is VGA.

     Briefly VGA-Box converts your Apple II video (from the RCA plug) to a 15-
pin VGA/SVGA output you can plug it into a modern PC monitor.

     VGA Box  is priced under $50. For a pic and ordering info, see

     I was using an old monochrome monitor. Finally I can play all my games in
color once again!
