Some really old VGA monitors will, but I wouldn't expect that people >are going to own these monitors. The exact number would be 28800 Hz. Any modern monitor must be able to sync to that, as that's 480-scanline VGA resolution at 60 Hz. There's no requirement for modern monitors to sync to anything lower than that, so they probably won't go much lower. Modern video cards (heck, even most older VGA cards) support anything less than 400 scanlines by doubling them. You'd have to go back to an EGA monitor with 350-scanline native resolution to get guaranteed support for a number as low as 21000 Hz, and even they might not go as low as the 15750 for NTSC.
