Actually, I beleive that the PGX24/PGX32 (with the HD15 connectors for
output) shouldw ork with any decent PC LCD display that will handle
1024x768, 1152x900, or 1280x1024.  The PGX24/PGX32 is really no
different than a normal PC video card - in fact, the PGX24 is an ATI RAGE II
chipset, and the PGX32 is a Permedia 2 chipset....
