I've not used the Orchid board, but I can recommend the Paradise Professional
wholeheartedly. It offers a wide range of resolutions, it's fairly standard
(that is, a lot of graphics application software will support it), it comes
with drivers (including Windows drivers).

We're using it in 640x480x256color to do overlays for interactive video.
$229 sample mail order price.
