However, I am a little confused about\ the various different camps of VGA system; 1. Paradise. The most widely used. Reliable, SLOW! 2. Tseng Lab. The one Video 7 based on? 3. Trident. Used by Logix. 4. Others. Various manufacturers have their own design, usually, they claim to be fastest, with lower price the the main camps. I will appreciate any discussion, pros and cons, recommendation. Also, which of the screen resolution is the most common? 640*400, 800*600 and 1024*768 (interlaced? non-interlaced?). Why would I need a 512K memory on board? Many thanks. casey ngkong@oregon.uoregon.edu
