Years and years ago, there were circuits available to convert CGA output to the television (both using an rf modulator or by operating on the tele and injecting the signals directly into the inputs of the rgb amplifiers from memory). The problem is that these days, the resolution and bandwidth of your standard svga far surpasses that of your tele. For example, if your in America your using NTSC (Never The Same Colour ;) which has far fewer lines per screen has a lower refresh rate and uses interlacing where as your computer usually has say >768 lines non interlaced. When hdtv becomes popular, this may change. Don't know if you can by a converter these days that forgoes the quality just so you can display the signal on a bigger screen. There are units for overhead projectors though. HTH, Mark.
