I recently purchased IBM's VGA card and 8513 Color monitor and have some
questions:

1) Can I run a CGA card and VGA card in the same machine?

2) Are there any interesting programming features of the VGA, above and 
    beyond the 256 color palette in mode 13h?

3) Are there any demo programs (with source) available that would show off
    the card's capabilities?

Thanks in advance,
       Ken Sykes

P.S.  The IBM VGA card is (supposed to be) exactly the same as the VGA in the
        PS/2 50's and above.
