Do: AT&T, Practical Peripherals
Don't: MegaHertz
Maybe: Intel, USRobotics (these two report a 16450 to when I asked a
person at PC Connection to try it out)

I've run into a plethora of game video problems, all very inconsistent.
Some will run on the LCD, others on CRT, some on both, some on neither.
Some will run under OS/2, others under DOS, some on both, some on
neither. I've yet to find a pattern.
I was running SideKick for a while, but it did something really weird
to the video under OS/2 (I swear it looked like a CRT does when it's
at the wrong synch frequency).
