- I find your statement about multiple screens @ different res and different
- depths to be fallacious...
- I know from personal expereince this is not true..
-
- Multiple screen is definitely sure but at various depths... This is not
- true..Unless you have a high end 24 bit -64 bit graphics card..
- Try putting two 8 bit gifs with TWO DIFFERNET color palettes and one 24 bit
- jpeg open at the same time... The whole screen starts to look like garbage.
-
- Then try having a HAM8 image open with a regular 8 bit gif... Its not going to
- happen.... PERIOD.
