Hello All;
I am preparing to purchase a Super VGA Graphics Board for an 
IBM PC-XT system and I would like some advice on which ones are
on the market (From a well known company) which meet my 
specifications. 

I require a Maximum resolution of 1024 X 768 X (256 Colors). I 
also require one which is capable of 8 bits operation and one 
which should work successfully in an XT system. Also ... I 
don't know if this is more or less standard ... but I need one 
which is compatible with other cards, and much software. And 
Finally, I need this board to be from a well-known manufacturer.
Although I perfer Paradise I will also consider Video 7, ATI, 
and Orchid. 

If you can give me a user report if you are using the actual 
hardware you describe, I would really appreciate this !!! 

I'm also looking at either a Sony CPD-1304 monitor, or a 
NEC Multi-Sync 3D monitor. If anyone can give me the pros and 
cons of either of these two monitors, I'd really appreciate it
!!! 

Thank You VERY Much !!!

Tim
