Correct, but there was an "AV" model with some extra video capabilities
(and a fruity monitor connector that always got jammed into the back of the
desk and wrecked and was hard to replace).
Waitwaitwait! I think the 6100's pizza-box case *also* had two VRAM slots
(running side to side, just to the left of and in front of the PSU?). Since
any RAM was butt-expensive at the time, most people just sucked it up and
did shared memory for display.
And you probably need to find a 90-degree-bend adapter card for the PDS
slot, IIRC.
