Ok. I can make a fix for this VERY quickly. When can I get such a fix
to you?
--KUBI--
ASAP. Since this affects the workstation root, we want to finalize it
by Monday. My alternatives are the following:
1. It is fixed.
2. We back out EGA support and those machines with the
special hardware require hand hacking.
I guarantee that I will sacrifice support for a couple machines for the
sake of the several existing Megapels.
