- How compatible are TIGA cards? We have a Hercules Graphics Station
- card at work, which has to be put into TIGA mode with a DOS TSR.
- Since the TIGA standards don't cover registers and other low-level
- aspects of programming the card, cards are free to vary at this level.
- I'm hoping, though, that Hercules accidently designed their
- card similar to that of a company with actual customer support. :-) /2
