  Does anyone know any information about the new graphics board for the 
ST.  I heard very little information about it.  It called the Parsec? or 
something similar and I guess it's basically a small graphics computer 
that uses the ST as a host.  It can produce resolutions up to 1028 x 728
and pull colors from a pallette of over 4000.  But what sounded impressive
to me was that you could expand this to 128K colors on the screen at a time
from a palette of over 4 million!  

 Can sombody confirm or deny this and if it is true post more info.
I sure want to know more about something this good.
