I read, in _Power Graphics Programming_ (which, BTW, I bought at a local
chain bookstore off the shelf a few days ago - I think it is still in
print, by QUE), that Turbo Debugger STILL screws with the VGA's
registers, EVEN when using another monitor, so as to make it almost
impossible to use TD for Mode X.  Abrash suggessts hooking an entire
another computer into a serial port and doing it from there.. but I
don't have a computer to spare.  

I was actually looking for suggestions of ANOTHER source level debugger
that will be more polite with my precious VGA registers..
