At the developers conference Dale Luck gave a talk asking us to dream up
features we wanted incorporated in the next Amiga.  As part of the talk he
showed an Amiga with some kluged together video hardware generating 1024x800
on a monochrome sun screen.     He said that they had also sandwiched 
together the video signals from 3 Amiga's to generate 5-bits of Red Green and 
Blue for a "near true color" Amiga generated Image.  He was not showing any 
new graphics chips that may be under development at Commodore.  And I would
not think that is what the John Foust was implying.
