Hi there.  I am interested in upgrading a Mac IIcx 4-bit video card
to 8-bit.  I understand this is only a matter of installing some
new chips.  Questions:

1) What kind of chips and where can I get them, and how for how much $?

2) Can I indeed install them myself.

3) Will this upgraded board perform identically to a normal 8-bit card,
   speed, and quality wise?

Thanks in advance.  Please reply to me in e-mail, since I don't normally read
this newsgroup.
