Yes RGBs is analogue, however CGA is RGBi and that is TTL, not analogue. Your monitor just has both sets of decoder circuitry.

I really don't like emm386, is their any major reason why JEMM386 support can't be added? If I were to try and add JEMM support myself, where in your code is the call to the MS EMM386 api for redirecting the ports? Is it mostly in one spot/function or is it kind of spread throughout the program? I …

Excuse my ignorance, I just got an older IBM that has MS-DOS 3.30 installed. I'd like to give the OPL2LPT a try on this machine, which memory management works best for this DOS version? For XT class machines you can only run patched games, the TSR won't work. If you like Sierra games then it's very …

You don't buy a Mac because they're good or cheap, but as a social statement: "yes, I work with computers, but I'm not one of those guys ." Whatever, I bought my Centris 610 to replace my Amiga 500, Windows 95 didnt impress me at all - at the time I also had a 386 which I ran OS/2 on (great OS) and …

Centris 610, Apple Trinitron Colour CRT, LC-040, 24MB ram, 80MB HDD, external CD-ROM Drive in 96'ish I think (I bought it 2nd hand from the Apple Dealer I worked for at the time).
