- My video company says the same thing. It sounds like the 32-bit GRE
- for video drivers is a significant change. Meanwhile, back at the
- ranch - I'm patiently waiting for my company to develop their 32 bit
- drivers to push their 24 bit 16.7million color card to the limit up
- around 1600 x 1200.

- I've played with thier Windows 3.1 driver and it's fast. BTW, anyone
- know where to get all these video bench mark programs that are being
- quoted in all the adds - WinMarks of 21.0, Winbench of xx, etc. I'd
- love to test this card under Windows to get some idea of what's what.
