	I just spoke with Wyse Technical and they told me some
interesting things about their monitors and drivers:

        There is currently Windows/286 support for Wy-700 and 7190
monitors.  The 7190, in addition, has a new driver called the TIGA
driver which is a specification TI came up with for 340x0-based
displays.  There is currently a Windows/286 driver for TIGA, which runs
over the Wyse TIGA driver making Windows/286 some TEN TIMES FASTER
on the 7190 than with the old driver (because it is now using the 34010).

        There will not be a driver for the current version of Windows/386.
However, there will be one for the next version of /386, coming out "soon".
Likely there will also be a TIGA driver for that version from Microsoft,
meaning all 34010-based displays (including the 7190) will have BLAZING FAST
GRAPHICS under this "new" ultra-souped-up version of Windows/386.

        PM drivers are in beta test for both monitors.
