    I keep thinking about buying a 386 system for home use; the
stumbling block is decently large, reasonably cheap megapel monitors.
No such product seems to exist.  The closest approximation that I can
think of to what I need is an extended resolution VGA card with one of
Seiko or Sony high-res monitors, but 1Kx768 pixels on a 14" screen is
just too tiny.	Does anyone know of a large monochrome monitor for a
reasonable price?
