     I can't agree with the "standard graphic modes only" approach.  Every
graphic mode existing on the IBM was a "non-standard add-on" in the
beginning.  Now, everyone uses EGA as a minimum, and VGA/Extended VGA is
catching on fast.  From what I've heard, the 32-bit QuickDraw option on the
Mac II is an add-on, too.  Ultimately, if we have to swap our machines to
improve the graphics, we'll never be able to keep up with everyone else. 
They'll just slot in a new card that outdoes whatever the next Amiga has.
