- Also no offense, but you are a bit confused. The Amiga gfx-cards use PC
- graphics chips such as the S3. So it is incorrect to say the Amiga
- resolution "cannot be imagined" by a PC user. Such resolutions are
- *far* more common to PCs than to Amigas, supported by more software, and
- moreoever, the newer PC chips are much faster than the ones used in
- Amiga graphics cards.
