Keep in mind that the IIc uses NTSC monitors.  If you have an obsolete video
monitor (not a computer monitor, but one from a component video system) that
will work fine in either color or monochrome mode.  Some older NTSC types don't
have the bandwidth to support the 80-column mode, so start by trying an IBM PC
Color monitor.  You may find that adequate, though small.

Subject: Apple II C Plus ---> modern monitor?
  Hi!
 Is there any way to connect an apple IIC Plus to a "modern"
 monitor?
 It has a 15 pin connector that has a strange pin out - and a
 composit video out on an RCA plug.
 I currently use an apple monochrome (tilt-y tube) monitor
 to see 80 col text and a Panasonic monitor to see the color
 modes. I have to lug to switch them.
