I'm looking for some information on a good VGA or better monitor. If
you've had any experience with any of the following monitors, could you
please email me? I will post a summary to the Net if sufficient responses
are generated. Both positive and negative responses desired.

NEC Multisync 2A (800X600 Dual Scan?),	NEC Multisync 3D (1024X768 Multiscan),
Sony (Any multiscan model), Packard Bell 8530 (720X480), Zenith (640X480).

I am using an ATI VGA Wonder and whatever monitor I get needs to be able
to run both color (thru VGA+) and Hercules graphics. I don't know if the
pure analog monitors (i.e. NEC 2A) can do Hercules. 

Also, do I really need more than the 720X480 resolution of the relatively
cheap Packard Bell ($389). Is the higher resolution worth the extra $$ ?

I will not be using the monitor for CAD -- just home use with a good paint
program etc.

Thanks in advance.
