Video modes
The computer supports video modes defined in the following table. If your
application offers a selection of mode numbers that do not match the
numbers on the table, select a mode based on mode type, resolution,
character matrix, number of colours and refresh rates. Also, consider that if
your software supports both graphics and text modes, the screen display
may appear to operate faster using a text mode.
