New monitors on old machines

All:

 

            I have a question. I'm getting a Tandy 2000 that doesn't have a
color monitor (it comes with a VM-1 monochrome). I've read that you could
use a third-party (i.e., non-Tandy) color monitor like the old NEC
Multi-Sync, but I was wondering if a modern VGA monitor could be used if I
made a 9-pin to 15-pin adapter.

 

            Thanks for any hints.
