Need advice on expansion boards. Do I actually need the "EGA" board to run software which says that's what is needed or does the PS2/30 MCGA take care of the same thing? I would like to expand the memory in order to be able to run the memory resident things with less problems of their co-existence... what are the advantages of buying an IBM board sold specifically for the 2/30, whether some of those advertised as compatible? Does the "half board" have any relevance for the PS2/30 -- it seems not, but I'd like to be sure. Will appreciate any help I can get. Tom Schlesinger Plymouth State College, NH decvax!unh!psc90!tos
