They don't both display at the same time, since they both use the Denise chip to generate the display. But under 2.0, you can switch modes using the "screenmode" preference editor, no need to reboot or anything. Actually, the A2024 will show a monochrome version of the 1950 display if you leave it on, but the hires display looks like nonsense on an A1950. -- Dave Haynie Commodore-Amiga (Amiga 3000) "The Crew That Never Rests" {uunet|pyramid|rutgers}!cbmvax!daveh PLINK: hazy BIX: hazy "That's me in the corner, that's me in the spotlight" -R.E.M.
