[comp.sys.ibm.pc] 24 Bit plane graphics on an IBM clone

mtp@ukc.ac.uk (M.T.Paley) (11/04/89)

Hello,
	I am designing a system for looking at material from the Long
duration exposure facility satellite due to be recovered this December, I
need to see and process colour pictures in highish resolution ( 512*512 )
but with VAST numbers of colours, ideally 24 bit planes! Is such a thing
possible on an IBM clone ( 80386 probably )?

	If so how much would it cost?	( Important point this )

	If not how close can I get?

	Should I just give up and get another computer?

Any information would be very helpfull.

	Matthew
