I have written an application which uses 2 screens, a VGA and RGB 
monitor. The VGA is mostly used in text mode but is capable of
displaying graphics. The RGB is used to display images taken by a 
infrared camera. The RGB monitor is driven by frame grabber, 
however my application only needs a second monitor. We are 
thinking of purchasing another computer but don't want to buy a 
frame grabber just because we need another video board.

Does anybody know of hardware which support an RGB monitor as a 
secondary display?. The Resolution should be at least 512 x 480. 
Display 256 colors from an 8 bit color pallet.

The price of super VGA is attractive. Can 2 VGA display be used 
at the same time?

Thanks in advance 



Tony D.
