[split] Old monochrome displays

Got one of those in the basement.  I never owned one when they were new, but I had friends who did.  I found one for 5 bucks at a Village Discount store marked 'as is' ... because it didn't work, or so they thought.  Someone had installed a hardcard at some point, and it was frozen up.  Took it out and voila!  Works like a charm.  Got some real floppy disks and downloaded a copy of dos 3.0 and I was good to go.
