I would like to know the resolution (pixels/colour) of Hercules, CGA, EGA VGA, and sVGA. How do these compare with the modes available for a stock Atari ST, or Amiga computer? I am contemplating a major purchase in the near future, and would wish the comparisons to figure out which configuration/computer to purchase. Roger White. -- Boot it up?
