- Except that I have an A2000 with a GVP Combo accelerator with 8 Mb 32-bit
- Extended RAM (i.e. not in the Zorro-2 address space) and I've had no
- problems running CyberGraphX on my Picasso. I also have 2 MB of 16-bit Fast
- RAM as well (in case that makes a difference...not that it should since
- it's not used most of the time).
