When I was a kid, I had a green screen Apple, and I wish I knew about 3rd party RF modulators. (It didn't work with an Atari-style modulator.) I never saw a setup like that, so I wonder how common they really were.

It was the typical way to connect a TV to an Apple. I used one before I bought a monitor.
Maybe 'typical' only in the very early days? I just never saw one plugged into a television rather than a computer monitor, nor did I ever hear about such a thing. I would have loved to play those games in color.
I feel very old.
We are both old, buddy. My dad bought this pretty loaded used system from a 'hacker', so at least I can post about z80 softcards and etc.
Unironic use of CP/M qualifies you as O.G.!
