[comp.sys.ibm.pc] IBM PS2/30

tos@psc90.UUCP (Dr. Thomas Schlesinger) (09/22/87)

I'm an IBM PS2/30 owner/user, with very little hardware knowledge.
Need advice on expansion boards.  Do I actually need  the "EGA" board
to run software which says that's what is needed or does the PS2/30
MCGA take care of the same thing?
   I would like to expand the memory in order to be able to run the
memory resident things with less problems of their co-existence...
what are the advantages of buying an IBM board sold specifically
for the 2/30, whether some of those advertised as compatible?
   Does the "half board" have any relevance for the PS2/30 -- it
seems not, but I'd like to be sure.
   Will appreciate any help I can get.
