Is their anything special about a two page display? or can I use a more

Your standard monitor may have to support an oddball resolution... those
two-page displays were designed to allow publishers and graphics people
to preview two 8.5x11" pages side by side.
If you had a one-page display card the resolutionn would be even weirder
(the actual monitors are really tall and thin, the same proportions as
one 8.5x11" page).

B: What kind of monitor it connects to? (looks like a
CGA or EGA
connector, but could be just about anything... from what I am finding
Sigma offered a cool SCSI based monitor that had its own custom stuff, so
I am fearing that it needed a custom monitor too)
I'm pretty sure it's a TPD monochrome card IIRC. (TwoPageDisplay)
