Thats the trick, you need to be at least "close" on the resolution and
refresh, or no picture. Given the number of these I run across though, I
would be pretty surprized not to be able to locate a compatible monitor
once you know what your box puts out.

BTW under the totally cool category I found this external RGB adapter box
that has a digital readout for refresh, and I think sync rates. Given some
luck I will have a few pictures of various items on my web site in the next
day or so.
