Plenty of us got by with color, but it was via an RF modulator to a little TV set.

- jacquesm 9y agoYes, hence the 'monitor' in italics, color monitors were expensive, color TVs were cheap (heck, you could find them at the garbage). Hacking color TVs to give them RGB inputs was another avenue, as was bypassing the modulator/demodulator step to push composite video straight into the TV at the right spot to get a crisper image.
- nobleach 9y agoWhen I was a kid, I found out I could just send the composite output to the RCA input on the back of my Betamax... and then RF out to channel 3/4 on my color TV. I didn't even need to save the 13 bucks for the RF modulator from Nibble.
