NCSA is the National Center for Supercomputer Applications.  NTSC is
the National Television Standards Commission.  The original Toshiba
T1000 has both an RCA composite (aka NTSC) port and an RGB port.  The
composite port works fine on my T1000 but only seems to generate
monochrome output (this is mentioned in the manual).  You may have
problems with color monitors that don't have enough bandwidth.  But it
works great with a monochrome (green, white, etc phosphor) monitor.
The RGB port works with standard IBM PC CGA monitors. The CGA in the
T1000 is actually better than the one in my desktop machine, as it
doesn't flicker.  Some of the more recent Toshiba laptops don't have
any kind of external video port.

My T1000 came with both an RCA cable and a printer cable, this seems to
have been a limited time freebie, a couple years ago.
