I have a IBM 5155 Portable that I have owned since new. It still has the original CGA Video card which drives the internal amber mono monitor. I'm interested in putting something a little nicer in it but don't want to loose the use of the internal monitor. The only option I can find is the ATI EGA wonder which has a connectector for the internal monitor which I believe is composite. Trouble is, I'm having trouble finding one for a reasonable price. Are there any other options, or does anyone know of a source for these at a reasonable price? Also the only version of the card that I can find info on is the EGA Wonder ver. 2.3, so I don't know if the other versions will work with the internal monitor. Also, was wondering what the max resolution would be on he 5155 internal monitor. Would it be able to go as high as 640 x 350? That would be a vast improvement over 640 x 200. Any info would be greatly appreciated!!
