What does CGA mean?  Just pink and blue?  I'm not too familiar with IBM
graphics terminology... (CGA is lowest resolution/number of colors, then
comes EGA, then VGA, right?)

OK, here're the big questions:  does it work with copy-protected games?   Do
you need a superdrive to use it without adding an external drive of some
sort?
