ATI (company name) makes two flavors. The EGA Wonder will display CGA, Hercules, EGA, and VGA modes 11 & 12, on a BUNCH of different monitors, including monochrome TTL. The VIP card will do all that plus ALL the VGA modes. It just so happens I got done talking with them on the phone today. Also, get a Computer Shopper magazine. You can find an EGA Wonder for around $200. If you want to see an ad from them, look in November's Byte magazine.
