   This may sound nit picky, but was 6 word translation of the article in
question was, help in modifying the color balance resistors on a cga card
to refine the exact color balance to match ones taste.  Taken 1 step farther,
this process could be used to get better 'monochromized' cga output.
   Your article sounds much more in depth, and of real value to a true
die hard hardware hacker....  send me a copy. 8-)
