I had my order in for a RasterOps 24 bit card for my SE/30, but
the local distributor screwed up and didn't deliver on time, so
I have a choise to bail out.

Should I bail out ? What 24bit cards ARE there for the SE/30.
Does the SuperMac Series III 24bit card come in SE/30 flavor ?
Mayve the 8.24 GC is planned for the SE/30 ? Radius ? Someone
else ?

Mail me your impressions, if you have a 24bit color card for
your SE/30, and I'll summarise to these groups. (No need to mail
"Mee Too":s, I _WILL_ summarize given there's any interesting
input.

Also, what do I do with a 24bit card (except for the home-grown
graphics I'll buy it for in the first place) ? What software
supports > 8 bits color ? What 24bit cards support < 24bit
depth (or do all of them do this ?)

The card & software's going to run on a 5meg SE/30, and an
external Apple 13" color monitor.

Thanx in advance, and I'll summarize what I get.
