From an independentwebsite:
Everyone knows the Commodore 64, even if they\'ve never used one. Slightly less well known but far more useful in this day and age is the Commodore 1702 video monitor.
These little guys were introduced around 1982 as an alternative to using a crappy TV for a monitor on your Commodore 64. And what a difference it made! The 1702 gave you a beautiful crisp image and handy front A/V inputs in a tiny stackable package. They even had a pair of RCA jacks on the back for separate Chroma and Luma input. These days we\'d call that s-video, but at the time they just called it Commodore video. Either way you got a far superior picture than any composite monitor or TV could manage. It\'s no wonder people found uses for them that Commodore had never intended, such as in TV studios or security rooms. And even 28 years later most of them are still going strong.
Now of course we have LCD TVs that\'ll outshine it in brightness and colour while being sharper than its designers could dream of, but the sheer versatility, ruggedness and thrift store availability of these things means they\'re still seeing use. In fact, there\'s one area where these little beauties can outperform a modern LCD TV.
