I was wondering; If I were a computer buyer & having a choice as to
                 which SuperVGA card I should buy, on a budget
                 which one should I choose of these listed?  
 
* ATI VGA Wonder  (w/ 1 Meg)
* Orchid ALL Boards to choose from (w/ 1 Meg)
* Video 7 VRAM (w/ 1 Meg)
* Video 7 Fastwrite (w/ 1 Meg)
* Video 7 VGA (w/ 1 Meg)
* Renaissance II (w/ 1 Meg)
* Genoa 6400 (w/ 1 Meg)
 
Now why should I choose the one you chose?
 
Setting aside that the Orchid ProDesigner II can emulate with Windows
3.0
very well, it's support is unknown for future upgrades.
 
The ATI VGA Wonder card is well supported, for some smalltime DTP'ing,
how
do you rate this card?
 
A Rendition II SVGA card is one of the top boards, but the price UHG! 
Is it
worth it for getting this Board?
