VGA has a 320x 200 resolution (with 256 colours no less!). Since we have
decided that colours have no bearing at all on resolution, we can honestly and
absolutely correctly state that the GS includes VGA resolution. In addition it
is on the motherboard and there is no need whatsoever to buy an add-on card to
display it. 

BTW, i saw a demo of 640x480x16 colours. The pictures were identical to the
3200 pics on this board. The number of colours made the perceived resolution
much higher. And it is much easier to animate. 

VGA resolution and killer Sound!!! God I love my advanced Apple II !!!!! State
of the Art and 12 Year Old technology to boot. Wow, am I happy with my
system.
