Well since the notes program will not let me abort this response I will
post it rather than mail it.  Sorry about the slip of the fingers here.

The PS/2 models 50/60/80 all come standard with VGA graphics cards.  These
cards coupled with and IBM color analog monitor do a very good job with
color graphics and text.  I have not had any trouble EGA graphics applications
on them, but I have not tried everything.  We had a NEC multi-sync that
was being used on an EGA card, but its cable was wrong to try it with the
VGA card.  I don't think there is any problem if you have the correct cable.
