I realy got a bargin recently when I purchased an IBM AT with a
Professional Graphics Display (PGA) monitor, all for $250! Unfortunately,
it didn't come with a PGA video card, so now I'm not so sure it was a bargain.
(A PGA monitor has a resolution of 640-by-480 pixels with a horizontal scan
rate of 30.480 kHz and a vertical rate of 60 Hz.) Is there a low cost
solution to getting this monitor to work? I really would like to use as
long as I don't have to pay an arm and a leg to do it; as I understand
it, the original Professional Graphics Card Set, when fully expanded,
used three slots in XT or AT system!
