We were moving recently and I found another one in a box that I bought from an owner that didn’t even know if it worked a good while back.   I hook it up to mono and it does come up and wait for a workbench disk.  I have an RGB to VGA adapter but it needs the 15.7 khz mode and none of my many monitors has that.
