Hi,
	I am looking for a VGA system.  However, I am a little confused about\
	the various different camps of VGA system;

	1.	Paradise.  The most widely used.  Reliable, SLOW!
	2.      Tseng Lab.  The one Video 7 based on?  
	3.      Trident.   Used by Logix.
	4.      Others.   Various manufacturers have their own design,
	usually, they claim to be fastest, with lower price the the main
	camps.

	I will appreciate any discussion, pros and cons, recommendation.  Also,
	which of the screen resolution is the most common?  640*400, 800*600
	and 1024*768 (interlaced? non-interlaced?).  Why would I need a 512K
	memory on board?

	Many thanks.
