what does it mean when a vga / super-vga graphics card is referred to as "16/256" and will it allow me to display 256 grey levels (or colors) simultaneously in hi-res (1024 x 7??) mode like the macII can? is there some vga extended standard coming which will allow this? thanks, -walt

>what does it mean when a vga / super vga graphics card is referred to >as "16/256" It mean 16 bits and 256K RAM (on the video card), which is another way of saying standard VGA. A Super VGA would be 16/512, which is 16 bits and 512K RAM on the card.
