Parallax Graphics has a 386/ix X11 driver for its Viper board.  It is a
1280 x 1024 x 8 bit board.  The interesting feature with this board is
that you can plug NTSC video into it and watch TV in a window while
you're running X.  I saw it running on a Compaq 386/25 at I/ITSC last
week -- pretty amazing.  Price is about $8,000 with software.
