Is anyone selling something like the M1764 these days?  What can I buy in the US that goes down to 15khz?

You should post a wanted ad, failing that just look around on eBay or your local ads.

The main problem is that I'm not sure what I'm looking for.  Could I pick up a flat panel lcd TV with a vga connector and a composite in connector?  I'm thinking I could locate a 23-pin to vga adapter for the higher resolutions, then switch modes to the composite for the ntsc modes.

Something like this:

LCD TVs will happily sync down to 15 KHz and sometimes even from the VGA input using a simple cable adapter as you have indicated.  The hard part is finding one that will sync down to 50 Hz vertically for compatibility with European software.

BTW, use Tinyurl.com or use a short caption for your link using the link tool to keep long links from widening the page, please.

One is a 20" monster which it looks like I'll be able to use.  (yea), the others are sort of useless to me.  Three are 9" and one is even smaller and black and white I think.  The color 9" monitors have great pictures though.  I think all but the 20 are destined for ebay.
