You and I think alike wa2ise. I was wondering how good such a mod might be on a color TV some time ago. I first asked the question after trying to connect an old windows 98 computer to my 71' Zenith Chromacolor through a VCR. The set up was very crude, consisting of me sticking wires into the VGA jack and using clip leads to connect those wires to the yellow composite video jack on the VCR. By adjusting the hold controls I was able to get four synched monochrome images with a big cross hatch in the center(like some screen shots of CBS color telecasts on NTSC sets). I gave up on this because I did not feel comfterable modding the TV at the time, did want to build or buy the circutry to allow for color, have no idea of how to get arround the auto VGA out shut off caused by (I presume) lack of the digital signal a monitor would normally send to the computer, and said to my self my colege is going to give me a computer next year so i do not really need to resurect this dinosaur.
But in a use with HD light this mod becomes interesting again!
