In Reply to: EGA vs VGA Tell me what the difference is please? posted by Wombat Was Here on 15, 2001 at 10:27 AM:

: Also, I have a 25" Wells Gardner monitor that has medium resolution. It should be able to handle MAME, shouldn't it?

First of all the connectors are different. EGA uses a 9 pin connector, VGA uses a 15 pin connector.

Although EGA is color based, it has very limited resolution, and colors. If memory serves, EGA 800x600 was only 16 colors!

In fact I doubt an EGA monitor or card have been made in ten years at least.
