Hi Mauricio,
I've done something with VGA monitors and 18F pics, reaching some 64x32 
pixels b/n or something less with 4 shades of grey (mostly due to the 
lack of RAM).

I'd like to do something new with PIC32, and/or using old VGA PCI cards 
with a PIC (you've read about this on the forum, probably).

Still, a PIC32 or a dsPIC won't be able to do a True-Color VGA or 
QVGA... in my opinion, or will have a tough work at it.
