Right off the bat with the screen by itself (seperated from the computer), no, there isn't a way to just "rig" up an RCA. You'd need some type of "driver" unit to convert an NTSC or whatever type of video standard you're gonna use into something the screen can display.

Basically the same reason you can't (normally) plug a TV into your computer or your monitor into your cablebox.

If you're real ingenious, though, DigiKey sells drivers for LCD screens.
