Humour me please. I have on order an IBM AT. I have not ordered a monitor or monitor card yet, being unsure about the options. Can anybody advise me on a card/monitor combo, gray-toned monochrome very acceptable, with terminal software interface that would have the following trivial features: o Very High resolution graphics (I don't know what this means these days) o Tektronics 1040 emulation capability o Clean, crisp alphanumerics o Switchable 80/132 column capacity o DEC VT-100 emulation capability o Compatable with whatever is emerging as the standard PC graphics mode (I assume Lotus-123 et al. define a defacto IBM standard) I plan to use the AT for statistical analysis and to interface SAS/GRAPH on the VAX from time to time. Of course I will post a summary of responses, probably in tabular from (long live tbl). Thanks. Christopher G.
