E.A. Brown offers two different interface boards that one can use to hook
up a Multi-sync monitor to the ST.  The output for color is superior, the
output for mono is good but not quite as nice as an ST mono (one must 
view everything through the color mask, which slightly blurs the mono 
image).  Very acceptable though, well worth it if you have the cash for
the monitor itself.  Costs for both are under $100, one is a multi-function
switchbox (drives, monitors, audio & composite outs, etc), the other is 
strictly for the multi-sync connection (this one is about $50, I think).
