I don't know of any that use analog, but perhaps there are some now. I tried
my NEC Multisync, and had to push the switch over from ttl to analog. It
seems that I remember something about that monitor being one of the first
in the DOS world to use analog signals. 

Today's NEC multisync is not cheap, and as you say, you don't need color.
I didn't mind giving up color at all for a large crisp monochrome monitor.

Good Luck
