I'm building a system on which I intend to run IBM OS/2-PM. Does anyone have
recommendations for VGA cards (inexpensive please !). Are the VGA clones
really fully compatible with IBM VGA or could they cause bellyaches for
the OS ? Moreover, does a 16 bit card really make much of a difference to
display speed ? Thanks for any info. 

Also, if anyone out there has built/bought a system (NOT a brand name system)
on which they are using OS/2 , could you E-mail me the components you used ?
thanks,
