[rescue] Wanted: 24-bit framebuffer in .uk

[Ken Hansen]

You *really* don't want an S24 - the last fellow I
advised on this matter insisted he needed 24 bit
color, and aginst my advice went out and got one.

$80-100 later, and he wrote me back, asking if I had a
TGX I could sell him, the performance *was* as bas as
I said...

My advice is to look for a box that supports > 8 Bits
easily, say an Ultra 1 *anything* Creator, Ultra 2 or
other... Here in the states, a used Ultra 1 170 can be
gotten quite reasonably...

HTH,

Ken
