Hello, I would like to know how people think of this card? I am an unfortunate owner of an early DVGA512 card (couldn't find win/386 or win3 drivers). This seems to be a good time to upgrade, having read quite a few good things (and a few bad things, too) about win3.0. Specifically, I would like to know o Is 1024x768x256 interlaced/non-interlaced supported? o Is it true that only an analog port is available? o How's the bios? The early DVGA bios has some bugs (eg, 800x600x256 mode). o Any problems in the 16-bit mode? o Any problems running it under unix? o what drivers are provided? Is os/2 driver available anywhere? o Is it backward compatible with the "old versions" (like DVGA, prodesigner (+)...)? I may run sco odt using it some day. BTW, do you know which video card is supported for odt? o What is the best place to get it? The current price seems to be ~320. o Considering performace/price, would you pick this card or the wd 8514? Phew, that's it. Thanks in advance for any advice you can give.
