1) It is possible, and can be done easily.

2) A scan converter, that takes the computer display signals
and converts them to NTSC/PAL/SECAM, will do the trick.

3) Prepare yourself for an ugly, bletcherous image.

4) Computer monitors are dirt cheap, if not free, if you are
looking for a down-and-dirty one. Even nice ones are not
very expensive.

5) I scan convert to my big screen 525-line TV, but only for
some games. Many images simply do not convert well as the
resoultions are very diifferent.

6) Your TV will need some sort of auxiliary input, such as a
composite (RCA jack) or S-Video (round multi-pin jack)
that is fed from the scan converter. Most modern TV sets
or TV monitors have this capability.

7) Bottom line is, unless you have special interest (like the
one where I use a 53" big screen for low resolution games),
then it is of questionable value to do so. The resultant image
will contain flicker, non-readable text unless it is VERY large,
poor color reproduction, and poor resolution.

Just my experience, and I hope it is of help.
