	Does anyone at this early date have any information on IBM's
new XGA standard.
	I know that it has a top resolution of 1024x768 noninterlaced
at 70MHz (isn't this lower than VESA and the European standards by
a handful of megahertz) but I'd like to know its standard and maximum
RAM configuration, how many colors it supports on-screen at 1024
resolution, and whether it supports the so-called super-VGA standard of
800x600 (which somehow I'm not hopeful of, but I assume clone boards,
when they appear, will throw this in anyway).
