I just had a NEC Multisync II ($525) and NEC Multisync Plus ($899) in my
office for a demo.  I used a Vaga VGA with both an analog and TTL
outputs so I could see them both at the same time.  I ran MS-Windows
with a 800x600x16 (This windows driver only does 8) and compaired the
differences. 

With the Cont and Brightness adjusted I could tell NO differences.  Not
in color, pitch, or contrast.  I swapped the inputs and still no
differences.  Second when I ran a CGA game, the Plus would not sync it
and the II had no problems.  (they both had no problems running a CGA
game in a MS-Window window.) But the Plus has a flater screen (less
glare), BNC conectors, and a width and high pot rather than a switch. 
In all the Plus had more dials but it's not worth the extra $374 for
me..
