	Ok .. two questions for you VPIX guru's.


1) I need to run "Brooklyn Bridge" or a similar product under VPIX, is there
   a way to add one of the lpt ports as a dda so that the dos program can
   get to the lpt hardware ??

   I realize that that will take it away from unix.

2) Can anyone confirm that the VPIX upgrade will allow the use of the
   hi res modes of a SVGA card (Video Seven VRAM) in vpix ?? 

   The theory is that if you remove vga.rom it will load the rom from the
   card and then you can set any mode you want .. is this true ????

	Thanks!
