I have inherited an Osborne 1- however...

I do not have anything to put on the "ext video" card edge, which very
much makes it worthless.

What I would like would be an adapter that actually sent out composite
video, I've already got a suitable 12" monitor.  But beggars cannot be
chosers, so if I can just fire up the internal 5 incher, so be it...

It's cute that Osborne does not provide a pinout, or at least they could
have designed the silly thing so the internal was active w/o a plug!  Not
very nice.

I realize one cannot send schematics by ascii mail- I'll pay for this info
by regular mail if someone has a schematic and is in a giving mood.  I
assume the internal monitor can be activated with some simple jumpers,
tho God only knows which pins to jumper!
