Sure.  It's 2017, not 1987.  :lol:

Get yourself an Indivision and you can connect to just about any modern monitor or TV in existance (assuming it has a 15-pin "VGA" input connector or you purchase the appropriate adapter, obviously).  Other methods exist (SCART adapters, GBS-8220, modded A520, any number of A2000 compatible video cards, etc.), but IMHO the Indivision is the simplest and most foolproof.  There's literally hundreds of threads on this subject already.  Google it.  ;)

Btw, I chose to stay with CRT.
Even with an Indivision, there's just no contest in my eyes.

I cannot disagree more strongly.  I'll never be able to get back the eye strain I lost from staring at flickery, blurry, low resolution 13" CRT screens all through the '80s and '90s, and wouldn't go back to that for all the tea in China.  But to each their own!  :lol:

SCART doesn't exist in the U.S.  I think Rednova lives in the U.S.

It does if you import a SCART TV, which was what the comment above said.  Still a ridiculous solution, IMHO, but I suppose it's one option! :lol:
