Speaking of running mono with color, I also have a question:
In running mono + ega/vga, will  hercules-type board work?  I had assumed
(haven't tried this yet, but I want to use 2 monitors with Codeview)
that only a MDA (Ibm mono without ability to display graphics) was the
required mono card.  Can the graphics part of Hercules-graphics cards be
turned off???
