[misc.wanted] ATI VGA WONDER and NEC MULTISYNC II Monitor

ramesh@cbnewsl.ATT.COM (nallepilli.s.ramesh) (03/28/89)

Does anyone out there have experience with the ATI VGA Wonder card and the
above minitor?  Does it work reliably in all the VGA and high-res modes?
Any recommendation/comments welcome.  Does the card come with a mouse?

Thanks.

I used to use the VEGA VGA (Video 7), but have recently switched over to
ATI VGA wonder.  And, yes, I'm using it with the NEC Multisync II.  The
card works great with the above monitor.  There are 2 versions of the card,
a 256K version and a 512K version.  The 512K version supports a few more
modes of higher resolution.  My 512K card can display 640x480x256 with the
NEC.  It is supposed to support 800x600x256, but I have test that yet.  So
I can't tell you whether the last 40 lines are cut off or not.  As far as 
the mouse goes, yes, it does come with a bus mouse.  The mouse that I got 
is a 2 buttons microsoft compatible mouse.  I know that some packages come
with a 2 buttons Logictech bus mouse.  I have seen both mice, both are good.
The ATI VGA WONDER works with both XT and AT.  It automatically detects 
whether it is a 8 bits slot or a 16 bits slot.  It also comes with a great
deal of drivers for Windows, Lotus, Ventura, etc.  Overall, I am very 
satisfy with it.

Hope this helps.
