[SunHELP] VSIMMS for SX framebuffer

ok, i've given up on this ZX framebuffer.  what a waste of a prefectly kick ass
framebuffer.  what bunch of dorks is responsible for this madness over at SUN?

ANYWAY, what is the big huge difference between the 4MB and the 8MB VSIMMS for
the SX framebuffer?  will the extra 4MB really give me a huge speed increase?
i ask, since i see some VSIMMS on ebay and the 8MB VSIMMS are going for 4x as 
much as the 4MB ones.

i don't need super-duper graphics speed (or i'd buy SGI instead of SUN) since
i mainly do GIMP on my sparc20 and that's about it, but the faster the better.

thanks!!

ps: the SX is still supported by Solaris, right?? (it's a joke)
