Someone recently described their AT to me and asked if it would accept
an upgrade to EGA.

The system is a 5-year-old Compaq Portable 286, model 101710. I am
told it has a built-in 9" mono display and composit jack for RGB output.

I am unfamiliar with Compaq, and would like to find out if the machine
will accept an EGA card, or if the RGB graphics are built into the
motherboard, and can't be over-ridden...

Anyone out there know?
