I am interested in getting a high resolution video monitor and graphics board
for a 386 machine.  I am unclear on the difference between the SuperVGA and 
the 8514/A systems.  What will the 8514/a system give me that the superVGA 
will not?  Is the extra money for the 8514/A worth it?  What software supports
the 8514/A and is it likely to become the graphic standard?  

I would appreciate any and all ideas/comments about this.  

Please write to me vi bitnet if possible at
