Am I just confused, or isn't 32 bit color a real enhancement from the 24 bit
color that my Mac uses.  What's the deal.  Thinking about color, has anyone
heard anything about NuGraf lately?  I seem to remember a QuickDraw replacement
coming from Apple that would be along the same lines as PostScript, with
device-independent capabilities.  Anyone have any more information?
