VGA is built-in to most PS/2s!
Well, that is my duh of the day.... Show's how much one can forget along the way. :?:

After looking at the back of the machine in the garage before going to work this morning, it indeed does have the standard 15pin vga port, serial, parallel, and the two ps/2 connectors on the backplane. What originally threw me is that 3 of the MC covers are missing and the cards I had from a PS/2 80 with a Reply 80 replacement mb in it at the time had 3 addon cards.. VGA, Ethernet, and SCSI..

This machine is destined to host my old IBM 8514 Touch Display in WFW 3.11 and DOS 6.x It's always neato to watch the Xilnix code get downloaded on startup to the touch display. Haven't hooked it up to anything in about 8 years now.
