I'm looking for high performance graphics boards for an AT bus machine
(ok, an RT to be precise).  Here are the ballpark specs.

	- 1024x768 resolution or higher
	- 12 or more bit planes
	- 24 bit color table if < 24 bitplanes
	- fast light source shaded polygons
	- z buffer

I would really like, 2kx2k, 24 planes, double buffered, phigs+ rendering, ...
but that is probably too unrealistic.

Note, I'm aware of high end workstations like the SGI, Stellar, etc. but
I need to know about board sets for an AT bus.

Please send me mail, as I don't regularly read this notesfile.  I post a
summary of what I learn.
