    Does anyone sell an LCD monitor that works with the Apple IIgs?
    I guess it just needs to be an analog monitor that will sync down to 15 kHz?

    There are some LCD monitors which have composite video inputs, and even
    some which have a TV tuner built-in. I don't know if the VGA inputs on
    any of them can sync down to 15kHz though, so you might be restricted to
    using the composite input.

    $70 is still a lot considering that Radio Shack used to sell an RF
    modulator
    for $20 that will do the same thing, it just requires a +12 VDC source. Similarly, a person could just route the composite signal to the video
    input
    port of a VCR.

    I'm interested in trying to preserve the "crispness" of an RGB setup, and
    I
    find that a good LCD monitor doesn't produce nearly as much eye strain
    after
    many hours of use as a traditional monitors.

    Considering what the machine is doing, I don't think that $70 is too much to ask. Afterall, it will keep your eyes from burning ;-)
