Yep, I came up with yet another question!

Will the ATI VGA Wonder or Orchid ProDesigner II VGA graphics
adaptors drive a standard (ie HERCULES compatible) monochrome
monitor?

If I buy a system with VGA monitor, all I'll have for back-up
is an extra monochrome monitor. I'd like to be able to use it
if the VGA goes down as I can't afford down time just because
I can't see the system's output!

Thanks for any responses. I've gotten mixed (ie ambiguous)
answers from systems vendors.

Bill
