H.1 INTRODUCTION


This appendix describes the Compaq/Matrox G200 MMS Quad-Head PCI Graphics Card used in
the standard configuration on some models and also available as an option. This card (layout

graphics card provides high performance multi-monitor imaging well suited for business
environments where displaying large amounts of 2D data is needed. This card includes four
separate G200 graphics controllers for supporting up to two pairs of analog or digital displays.

This card is available in both analog and digital kit forms. The analog kit (SPN 159513-B21)
