[net.micro.pc] Monochrome Graphics Query

From:  Rob-Kling <Kling%UCI-20B.UCI@Rand-Relay>

I'm continuing to look for a graphics board for the IBM PC which
allows graphics displays on the monochrome monitor.  I would like a
board to support Lotus 1-2-3 graphics and not have some of the
problems continually attributed to the Hercules board.

Mylex has been advertising a graphics board that sounds plausable.
However, neither Mylex or Tecmar promise Lotus 1-2-3 support.

Most recently, Applied Computer Products has run an ad for two
graphics boards (BiGraphix I and II) on page 30 of the January issue
of PC World which appears to meet my requirements.  They appear to
promise Lotus 1-2-3 graphics compatability with each.

I would appreciate hearing from anyone who hasd had experience with
these boards or other plausable candidates.

Thanks,
Rob Kling
