There's an INIT/CDEV called Color Desk by Paul Mercer which will do just
that on a Mac II.  We have a Beta version floating around here, and it
gets a lot of oohs and aahs.  Two problems: it's a memory hog (~300k!!)
and I have no idea where to get a real released copy.  Not much that
anyone can do about the first, but anybody know about the second?
