I am so confused!

I am getting ready to have a Tandy 3000 (AT clone) shipped out.  While looking
for a good color monitor, I've been so confused that I don't know which way
to turn.

I've kind of decided that EGA is the way to go.  Specifically I'm looking at
both the Quadram EGA card (EGA, Hercules, Normal IBM Graphics & mono card all
rolled into one card!) and the STB EGA card.  I'm going to be running SCO Xenix
on this system also.  I am interested in ANY comments you have on these boards. 
Also, if you could tell me what monitor you have and how you like it....

I would like to use a Tandy 2000 color monitor on it.  I know that on the 2000
it is nice and sharp.  Is this monitor compatible with the EGA card?  (All
I know is that it IS NOT compatible with a normal IBM color graphics card)
How can you tell what monitor works with what card?

Gee, as you can see I'm kind of confused and reading the various mags/talking
to sales people have just made it worse!
