In looking at the new IBM PS/2 systems, the only thing that really impresses
me is the vector graphics system. Does anyone know whether vector graphics
adaptors/monitors will be available for the current 80286/80386 machines?
Thanks in advance.

IBM will offer VGA for the entire PS/2 line. The PS/2 model 30 uses an
AT bus. I infer that you will be able to get a VGA from IBM which will
work in your *AT* bus machines.

The "VGA" is available from IBM as "IBM Display Adapter", part number 1887744, $595 list, available 7/87. Note, "VGA" means "Video Graphics Array". Nothing to do with Vectors.
