I have just found out about some misinformation of mine.  I had said that the
NEC Plus has a resolution of 1024x768.

I was mistaken.  The XL has that resolution.  The Plus has a 960x720 
resolution.  You as I had stated, you STILL need the Plus if you wish to use
an aftermarket VGA board with (for example) 256x800x600 resolution since the
NEC II only has a max of 800x560 resolution.

Where I got this info was BYTE Feb., '88.  They used a Sigma VGA that is
touted to have 100% HARDWARE (not BIOS) compatibility to CGA, EGA, MDA, 
Hercules, and VGA (which is one of the boards the recommended in the March
issue)!!
