- I have a relatively new Apple High Res 4.8 color display card (NuBus)
- in a IIcx driving a 13" monitor. The card came with no doc whatsoever.
- There are sockets on the card that look like SIMM sockets.
-
- I assume that this is a 4 bit card, and that adding the right stuff will
- make it an 8 bit card.
-
- What's the right stuff? Ordinary 256K SIMM's? VRAM?
-
- Will it be any faster, or will it just increase the available color depth?
-
- Thanks for any info.
