daw@houxs.UUCP (David Wolverton) (09/29/88)

I've received a few requests for more information on the "new TSI board"
I mentioned in a previous posting.  Since it might have general interest,
I'm posting the info rather than mailing it.  All info is extracted from
TSI's promotional literature; I have no experience with this product or
TSI, nor any conflict of interest.  Please contact TSI for additional
information, not me.

I called them after the Boston Expo, and the woman I talked to claimed that
they were working on an adapter to allow other brands of large screen displays
to be used with the GEMINI card.  Available REAL SOON NOW.
