I have just been reading an article about the Serial Port's new Archimedes
Graphics Enhancer board. This provides, amongst other things, the selection of
256 colours from a 24-bit palette. The article also mentioned that Acorn were
developing a new video controller (VIDC2). Does anyone have any information on
the proposed revisions with respect to the current VIDC?
