I've used the Paradise VGA Pro in 132 x 25, and 132 x 43, but very little
seems to support these.  You can use it to TYPE, DIR, etc in black and white
but other than straight DOS, I've not been able to use this mode.  It is
handy to view the .lst files from masm.  Most software supports 80 columns
and 25, 43 or 50 lines.  In 50 line mode, however, usually the tails of
descender characters are missing, making things a bit hard to read.  Many
programs support these modes, but you have to be in these modes when the
program is fired up (browse, from PC Mag, etc)
