- I think this question may be a little premature (it never matured for
- OS/2 1.x), but does any one know if the following video card exists:
-
- 1280x1024
- color (4-bit color is good enough)
- non-interlaced
- ISA bus
- RGB(+(h/v)sync) output (failing that I think I can get an adapter cable)
- *** OS/2 2.0 drivers ***
- $500 price range
-
- From what I've read most of the S3 based video cards should be able to
- handle this (or something close like 1280x900 (???)) but I don't know
- of any that claim to have OS/2 drivers.
-
- I have a 2 year old (unsupported) TIGA board that's very slow (read
- bad Windows drivers) for which I might be able to get drivers that
- might work. But I'd rather bet on a supported board from a reputable
- company.
