From: Dick Kalagher <kalagher at mitre> The Compaq, TI Professional, and Corona all have a high resolution character mode that does graphics on the same screen. As far as I can tell, you can not get this on an IBM-PC. Does anyone know of a hardware board/monitor combination that will allow this on the PC? I am referring to a monochrome mode only. Thanks, Dick

From: Dick Gillmann <GILLMANN@USC-ISIB> There are several boards available that add graphics to the monochrome display. The Hercules board is the most popular. Tecmar has an ad for another one on the back cover of the latest issue of PC Magazine. You're probably better off with the Hercules because a lot of commercial software has been adapted to it already. -------
