The monitor should _not_ be CGA compatible - CGA is digital, the ST needs
analog.  The Pansonic C1391 should work nicely; the C1381 won't sync low
enough (15.75KHz is needed) for the ST in color.  Don't know about the
C-1335.  Others known to work include the NEC Multisync 3D (and presumably
4D and 5D, big bucks), the Sony 1302 and 1304; most others should also work
if they sync slowly enough.
