What graphics card do you have in there?  I've got an Ultra 170E with a
Creator 2d here.  The machine is plenty fast enough, and it doesn't ever
get bogged down the way that x86/IDE boxen do, but man, the graphics
performance is pretty much on-par with my ATI Mach32 Graphics
Decellerator from my P-60 box.  At least the colours are good, and the
picture is stable.
