Dale,
Funny thing...I have an old 8086 (or is it a 286?..can't remember)
bondwell portable with dual floppies and no hard drive that I just
lent to someone who is starting out on computers...I know with that
one there is simply a switch for LCD or external RGB...I hope yours
is the same... It's hardly been used....looks brand new ..so I think
I'm going to get it back from him and pack it away for 25
years....have me a JINUWYNE ANTEEK,
Best,
Bob Chapel
I don't recall if I ever ran a color monitor off it but I know a
monocrome did fine.
