Does anybody already have any information about the new XGA graphics standard built in the new IBM PS/2 models. I just know that is has VGA compatibility and a resolution of 1024 * 768. Is the programming model the same as for VGA, except that you have larger planes? Do they provide 8514/A compatibility? Thanks for any information!
