We need a 4 MB board, which is about $1500 more than a 2 MB board (at educational prices). The 2 MB board is upgradable to 4 MB. Does anyone know what hardware the upgrade requires? We're wondering if we can stretch a limited budget by buying our own video RAMs and populating the board, or if other chips and/or modifications are required. Thank you. -- Mike Partridge partridg@umaxc.weeg.uiowa.edu
