Not natively, no. Two options exist; you can either buy a LCD monitor specifically designed to accept RGB signals, or you can buy a CGA-to-VGA converter (around $50) and then use a regular flat screen.

Re: Centipede
I think the history of the board will show that, with one notable exception, we are a cocktail-friendly bunch.
Am I a hero? I really can't say. But, yes.

Nice! Not nearly as heavy as the stand-up version. How does it play?

Re: Centipede
I think we're pretty anti-elitist around here! I would be DELIGHTED to talk cocktail games with you.Casual Observer wrote: Thu Jul 30, 2020 2:07 pm whew, i was afraid of ridicule when i eventually get a cocktail ms pacman.
My take was basically, I wanna play some Centipede, cabaret and standup games are into the $1700s when nice, I've got room in my office, this one was nice and available, let's do it.

Re: Centipede
It's an easy mistake to make. People here are, generally speaking, against anyone else enjoying any sense of joy in life. If one were to draw a Venn diagram, you could just draw one big circle called "things to shit on" and then fill it with smaller circles, in which would be everything everyone else enjoys.
