I use a monitor instead of a TV, and feed video from my VCR. In my
experience, the picture quality is better than most smaller than 19"
TVs (Of course, I only nee one TV, and I have a IIgs - so I got an
Amiga monitor, since it has BOTH analog RGB and composite video inputs
(it also has so-called "S-Video" input, if I ever get a S-VHS VCR). )
