Is it now possible to get full 8514 resolution (1000xwhatever) with
Win386? Last time I tried, I could only get VGA resolution; MS had
not yet come up with a driver for 8514 for Win386. I ended up
running my apps under Windows 2.0, which did have an 8514 driver, for
resolution and speed. 

PM, on the other hand, DOES support 8514 graphics (and VGA, too),
and after 2mos of converting windows code, I'd have to say it's
a nicer environment.
