[comp.sys.mac.programmer] Quickdraw speedup boards & NTSC video boards.

I have two quick questions for you all.

1) What's the best Quickdraw accelerator board.  I am looking for
   something that will not only speed up the display it's connected
   to, but also any other displays I have connected, plus offscreen
   rendering as well.

2) I currently have a Colorspace II, which I am very happy with.
   However, now I may be in the market for a board that can do
   very high resolution NTSC output -- higher than the CS2.  I've
   heard that the Truevision boards support modes with increased
   #'s of pixels horizontally -- this would be an example of what
   I would want.  Any advice, war stories, etc?  Oh, good low-level
   programming support, plus the ability to do "page flipping" would
   be nice.  8 bit color is all I need, btw.

I appreciate your time.  Thanks much.
