- It's also verrrry slooow for me too! Therefore, I went back to the 16 bit,
- 1024x768x16 drivers. Who needs 256 colors on their desktop anyway? Speed
- is much more important than colors. The seemless Windoze was cool though, but
- again not as necessary as speed. I'm much happier with the 16 bit 1024x768x16
- driver because it is much faster and has really cool index tabs in the
- settings. :)
