- Well, then, let's see some AGA upgrades for ECS machines, or at
- least the A3000! Come on, no complaints that "AGA is
- outdated." It may not equal a CV64, but it is much much much
- better than ECS, and probably most users still have ECS. I
- think for $100, they would sell MILLIONS of these things!
- Besides, 800x600x256 is available in AGA, and that's all I
- need! That's about all VGA/SVGA does anyway (and even if you
- *can* do more colors, most Windoze apps ONLY work in 256
- colors!!!
