Rats. I saw several IIe-era monitors (and IIe systems, Disk II drives etc.) in a
dumpster less than an hour ago, but wasn't allowed to take anything - I expect
they're off to the crusher. :-(
Any old CRT TV is generally a decent monitor for the IIe and similar. The
cheaper, the better; you want good, fuzzy pixels. :-) Modern LCD TVs,
when they'll sync at all (mine has trouble) look like garbage, partly
because they're much sharper.
If you know a good dump, chances are you can find cheap-ass CRT TVs from
the mid-'90s that will do a fine job for your purposes. Same goes if you
try to run vintage game systems like an NES.
