At a recent computer faire on campus Apple's booth was sporting several 2 Page
displays which were running 256 shades of gray.  The monitor and card I have,
which is several years old, will only support 16 shades of gray as far as I
know.  I didn't get a chance to peek inside and see what card was driving
the monitor, but suspect it was the 8-24 card ?  I also didn't see if Apple
has changed the connector on the monitor cable.  I want 256 shades of gray !
Does anbody know if I can just pop in a 8-24 card, will my *old* 2 page display
cable fit an 8-24 card ?  Can I add vram to my existing apple video board ?

thanks,
