I'm going to have to retract what I said. I was working off the Orchid
ProDesigner manual, which says "displays 800x600 resolution on an IBM
8514 monitor". (which by the way is apparently displayed *interlaced*
on 8514 monitors) However, I have not personally tested the 800x600
mode.  In fact, I just tried to run Windows 2.10 with it and it puts
up a green screen and hangs. 640x480 and 1024x768 work so it doesn't
matter much to me, but it is strange.
