No way. A SVGA monitor begins to scan around 30kHz, whereas the GS uses 15.75
(or something like that) kHz. However, some old Nec monitors (like the 2A)
_do_ work ... when you shop for a monitor, make sure it can handle the
low horizontal frequency.

Amiga RGB monitors also work, but they have worse quality than a Nec 2A.
