There's a really important lesson here.

He came in with such a complicated "solution" that it completely 
misdirected me.  I'd forgotten about the ethernet connector (though to be 
fair, the cheaper Pi board doesn't have ethernet).  And since it is meant 
to be networked, surely the variant of Linux for this board can be 
telnetted into.

The misdirection was so strong that none of us have mentioned that there's 
a composite video output, a nice standard RCA phono jack, on the Pi board,
incase someone doesn't have a newer model that does HDMI or VDI.  So the 
board can output video to any old NTSC monitor (one might imagine PAL 
too?)  so long as it has a composite input jack.  That's not even 
necessary, the composite output could feed an RF modulator, just like in 
the old days, which then gets the signal into the tv set via its antenna 
jack.  Hence all the bases are covered.
