There is a product called the EGA Wonder card (I think, it's something
like that) that will allow you to display any graphics mode (mono,
CGA, EGA) on any monitor (NTSC, EGA, mono (I think)).  It does
dithering and things to get the desired effect.  I haven't seen one of
the cards myself and I don't know who makes the card but I do know a
dealer who sells it: Avacado Computer in Yorba Linda, CA.  Their phone
number is (714) 528-1025.  Avacado Computer specializes in video and
does custom work, too.  When I dealt with them I found them to be very
competent.
