EGA was standard, then came VGA, but what do I do about purchasing a
sVGA card?  I would like a 1024x768x256 card to match my monitor,
non-interlaced if possible.  I've seen "8514A" thrown around, but not
many compatible cards.  There are tricky ads claiming "1024x768x256 on
a 8514 montitor".  But that is NOT the same.  I realize cards include
drivers, but I would like to just select 8514 in DrawPerfect and other
future packages, and be done with it.  Any suggestions?  Are the
boards very fast?  I think Paradise has a 8514 board.  -Pete
