You may be right, I have never come across one that does do a 24 bit plain.
I wish I would.  That would be a sight.  At present, though, all I can see is
256 colors, but by some switching of the colors you can get more than 256 on
the screen at a time.  It is complicated, and I don't quite understand it, let
alone remember it.  If you want details I might be able to find them for you.

Gee, just think, 1 meg of memory JUST for the monitor.  And I though that 22K
was a lot!
