For producing large text on an IBM-PC compatible, I can suggest a
couple of programs called PC-LENS and PC-View respectively. These
run on an IBM-PC compatible and require both the monochrome and CGA
cards. They take the information displayed on the monochorme card
buffer and regenerate the same information in larger characters in
the CGA buffer.

Another possibility it the VISTA system, produced by TSI Inc. This
works by intercepting the normal video output and regenerating a
portion of the image with oversize pixels.
