Well, my Diamond Speedstar Plus just came in.  About half of the manual
is devoted to that Edsun CEG stuff that supports 32,767 colors or something.

How do I know if my card will support that mode?  And if it doesn't, does
anyone know if you can buy an upgrade for the card from Diamond???  The 
manual I got just talks about the drivers and nothing else...

I'm using the 1024X768 in 256 colors with Windows 3, and its incredible!!
But I think 800X600 in 32K colors would be nice.  :)

Thanks for any help!!
