Has anyone had any experience with the new 2048 * 1536 video cards
I saw one advertised in March Computer Shopper, think its name was 
a melrem vga super plus+.
From memory a recent article I read said something about a new chipset 
that used special techniques to allow the above resolution to be displayed
on your standard (1024 * 768 - non interlaced?) monitor.
Can anyone provide more info? Since its not really providing true 2048 * 1536
resolution (it uses special software to smooth the jaggies) is it really
worth investing in?
Can you use standard drivers?
THANX in advance for any info.
