I snagged the following message off a FidoNET Echo since my interest was stirred by the product mentioned. If someone can provide me with more specs or perhaps tales of use, that would me great. Message follows: -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- From: JASON ANDREAS Sent: 07-16-89 17:45 To: MASON TAUBE Rcvd: -NO- Re: (R) 256K DRAMS I wouldn't say all the time. The problems are with some of the developers who release their programs before the programs time. I use my AMIGA extensively in programming, never crashes, but, when I do a sophisticated rendering using a basic amiga (1meg), or am testing a new program, the amiga sometimes crashes, but this is solved with GOMF3.0 . My atari ST doesn't crash as much, but it does every now and then! As for the HR 2M AND 4M graphics card for the MAC, I believe the SANG brothers in Germany may be if they haven't already released a VIdeoputer board for the ST, ONE IS AVAILABLE FOR THE AMIGA NOW. This board comes with the INmos T800 & G300 chips. The board can display a 2048x2048 picture with 16.7 million colors. The board can address a 8196x8196 screen. This capability along with the T800 running at 25Mhz, for $3500, compared with $6000 for the HR card on the MAC, shows who's Graphics card is better. But enough with the My computer is Better than Yours! Who really cares, other than insecure MAC OR IBM OR ST OR AMIGA USER trying to reassure themselves they purchased the BEST COMPUTER! --- D'Bridge 1.21 * Origin: Davy Jones Locker-W.
