Video Graphics Array "VGA" is a standard for computer display. It has a lot going for it in the hobby electronics field as it is a pretty simple standard and quite straight forward to implement with sufficient signalling speed, there are also a lot of monitors around to test projects on! Colour is a lot easier to generate on a VGA monitor than on a composite video monitor, but it requires a lot more speed as the frames are more detailed and there are more signals to generate.
