-[2] for ATI EGA Wonder, mode 08h is only valid if SMS.COM is loaded resident. 
-      SMS maps mode 08h to mode 27h if the byte at location 0040:0063 is 0B4h, 
-      otherwise to mode 23h, thus selecting the appropriate (monochrome or 
-      color) 132x25 character mode. 
-    for ATI VGA Wonder, mode 08h is the same, and only valid if VCONFIG loaded 
-      resident 
-[3] early XGA boards support 132-column text but do not have this BIOS mode 
-[4] DESQview intercepts calls to change into these two modes (21h is page 0,

-[5] ATI BIOS v4-1.00 has a text-scrolling bug in this mode 
-[6] for AT&T VDC overlay modes, BL contains the DEB mode, which may be 06h, 
-      40h, or 44h 
-[7] BIOS text support is broken in this undocumented mode; scrolling moves 
-      only about 1/3 of the screen (and does even that portion incorrectly), 
-      while screen clears only clear about 3/4. 
-[8] The Oak OTI-037/067/077 modes are present in the Oak VGA BIOS, which OEMs 
-      may choose to use only partially or not at all; thus, not all Oak boards
