You can very definitely use a multi-sync monitor on a ST as
both black/white and color; I've been using a Sony CDP-1302
multi-sync for over a year.  The only "oddity" is that you
will probably have to build your own cable.  I've also heard
of people using Thomson and NEC multi-sync monitors.

To switch between modes, you either ground the monochrome
detect pin (for black & white) or leave it floating (for color).
