Hello.

I am considering the purchase of an IBM model 70. However, I would like to use
Windows/386 in a resolution higher than 640x480, like some of those clones with
cards like Paradise. Can I simply buy the 8514 monitor and expect Windows/386
to know about the higher resolution available, perhaps set it up or something?

Also, I would appreciate any information about clones that run Windows/386
in the higher resolution without too much of a problem. I just got burnt because
the Gateway 2000 machine I bought wouldn't even run Windows/386 at all. I am so
fed up with dealing with ignorant mail order bozos that I am willing to sign 
over my bank account to BigBlue just to get some peace of mind. 

I assume the Model 70 doesn't have too many compatibility problems!!!

Thanks,
Milan.
