I finally pitched·my old Commodore 64 during a cleanup at work. I had been saving it for "just the right application" that never came. I liked·its direct output to a TV set for displaying text and data. Does anyone know of an existing module that would take text & numerical data from a BS2-class chip (SEROUT commands) and generate an NTSC signal to display them on a standard analog TV? I imagine it would act something like a serial LCD. Plenty of nice old TVs·to pick from, since people are getting rid of them as fast as their monster trucks and SUVs.
