   I am also using an ATI VGA Wonder (512K), attached to a Seiko CM1430
analog multisync monitor. They work very well together (the card's setup
program even has an entry for the Seiko in its monitor-selection menu!)
The Seiko can handle anything the VGA Wonder puts out with the single
exception of the 132-column text modes. (I.e. it can handle 800x600 and
1024x768).
   The Seiko is currently available for $519 from a place called
Computer Mail Order. 
   Note that I have no connection with CMO other than being a very
satisfied customer.
