- IBM's 8514/a card is interlaced (but the 8514 monitor is
- long-persistance, so you don't notice much...). Other 8514/a cards
- aren't. ATI's Ultra cards can run as interlaced or NI while in 8514/a
- mode. You run the board's configure program (from DOS) to set this
- up. IBM's 8514/a driver will work either way.
