Just a few questions:

 Has anyone had any experience with any of the new Trident 8900 chipset
VGA boards? (eg. Trident & Logix)  I have the Logix VGA 1000 and have
been quite impressed with its performance. (Only have 256K on it, Ick! :-<)
Is it true that they have a 24-bit palette?  I will be getting a new
computer soon and want to have state-of-the-art equipment. :->

  Also, which monitors would be best to use with these cards? I am looking
for non-interlaced monitors at 1024x768, 14" or 16". I have heard good
reviews for the Nanao and Mitsubishi monitors.  Has anyone had any
problems/praises with these monitors?

Thanks,
