I can't remember the video output on the Rainbow, but I wanted to do 
something similar to have one setup for the S-100 machines. After 
looking on eBay (before I banned them from my use), I found a device 
that basically had RCA audio/video inputs with a VGA output. It also had 
the advantage of having an analog TV tuner built in so I could also use 
things like the old video games that had the Channel 3/4 output.

The device is buried somewhere so I can't tell you the brand.
