Our B007 has run happily for 18 months, and I'm not aware of anyone else who has yet run into problems. (I'm touching wood as I go; not that I'm superstitious; I just believe in taking precautions against unfortunate coincidence). If you have a B012 in your system, then I'm given to believe that Inmos now produce (or are about to) a graphics TRAM. It's supposed to be a megapixel device and it was mentioned at an early stage in the TRAM's development that it would have an improved colour pallette chip, allowing you to interrogate the thing to find out what the current colour table was &c. Wouldn't that be nice, now...? Maybe someone out there from Inmos can fill in the details re. availability, price &c. The only other option I can think of would be to site a graphics board in your host machine; there seem to be plenty available. Cheers, Magnus Paterson, ROE
