A ColorSpace II *and* a ColorSpace/fx board will do this.  (not the
answer you want to hear).  But I have a followup question:  If the
above mentioned boards are used as a cheap NTSC converter (to get Mac
RGB to a NTSC signal), is there any way to get the same image
displayed on two monitors?

Right, lets try this again.  We have a Mac with an Apple video board
for normal display.  We also have a pair of these ColorSpace boards
that allow really neat video stuff to occur.  It is possible for a
ColorSpace board to put out a NTSC signal.  When a pair of video
boards are put in a Mac, it assumes that you have two monitors to go
along with it.  What we want to do, is to have the Apple video board
work as normal and take that signal, run it through the ColorSpace
boards to get the same image, but in the NTSC format.

Any takers?
