Greetings
	I am in the process of upgrading to Open Desktop.  I will be running
it on a 386/20 and a 386/33 ...Both will have 10 meg RAM and at least 300 MB
hard drives on each.  I am looking at Super VGA cards that do 1024x768...and
a monitor to match.  I am currently leaning towards the NEC 4D.. or the 5D
if budget allows.  

Any suggestions ?

	I will be putting a WD8003E in the machines as well so I need 
a video card that wont conflict.  The ODT release notes mention some
video cards that are supported but that there are I/O address conflicts with
certain erthernet cards.  Can this be resolved easily ? (By restrapping ?)

I would love to hear from other ODT users with similar configurations.

Thanks in advance.    Rob.
