Not natively, no. Two options exist; you can either buy a LCD monitor specifically designed to accept RGB signals, or you can buy a CGA-to-VGA converter (around $50) and then use a regular flat screen.

I bought a cocktail version last night.

I thought people here were against cocktail format?

I think the history of the board will show that, with one notable exception, we are a cocktail-friendly bunch.

whew, i was afraid of ridicule when i eventually get a cocktail ms pacman.

Nice! Not nearly as heavy as the stand-up version. How does it play?

I think we're pretty anti-elitist around here! I would be DELIGHTED to talk cocktail games with you.

My take was basically, I wanna play some Centipede, cabaret and standup games are into the $1700s when nice, I've got room in my office, this one was nice and available, let's do it.

It's an easy mistake to make. People here are, generally speaking, against anyone else enjoying any sense of joy in life. If one were to draw a Venn diagram, you could just draw one big circle called "things to shit on" and then fill it with smaller circles, in which would be everything everyone else enjoys.

Huh. He's right. How did we get here?

Can I say that at exactly 5, when I gave myself a long wekeend, the power company cut our power? Can I shit on that?

Are you saying we have a teetotaler in our midst?
