Rumor has it that a Mac IIcx with 8MB has a tendency toward video flickering. Is this true? How widespread is the problem? Does it depend on the number of planes on the video card? ----------------------------- Alan Epstein Meta Software Corp UUCP: ...bbn!metasoft!alan 150 Cambridgepark Dr Internet/ARPA: alan%metasoft@bbn.com Cambridge, MA 02140 USA -----------------------------

How widespread is the problem? >Does it depend on the number of planes on the video card? I get this flickering with 4MB installed and a 4 bit video board with monochrome monitor. Someone one else on the net suggested to me it may be a problem which would go away if the board was 8 bits.

[...] I have a Mac IIcx with 5MB and a SuperMac 8-bit card and a Sony 1303 monitor. I have no problems at all. I would be interested to hear from other who have had any problems in this regard, and what configurations they have. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Joe Brownlee | Captain, please -- not in front of the Klingons.
