Watch that... you need 1M of video RAM to do 1024x768x256.  512K will only
get you 16 colors.  There is a difference.  The Orchid is an excellent card
however, but if you HAVE to have that resolution, I assume it's for CAD
or something along that line.  In that case, something from Number Nine, or
Artist would fit it better.
