This is a quick query: Does anyone know of any auto-switch or other video cards that are Herc Plus compatible. I see many, many advertisements for cards that are "Herc" compatible (in- cluding the Hercules VGA itself). Followups inevitably reveal that compatibility only extends to the original card, and not to the more recent (and much more flexible) Herc Plus. I know that this is a shot in the dark, but any help would be appre- ciated. Right now I am running an ATI VGA, which again is compatible only with the _original_ Hercules standard. Indicentally, this reminds me: My ATI didn't come with a mouse. I assume that many got versions that did, but didn't need the mouse. Anyone have an extra one around? -Richard L.
