I have a question regarding the new  SuperMac QuickDraw accelerator (I
think the call it their System III product...?).  I was thinking about
getting the  Color/24 card (equivalent to  Rasterops 264 - 24bit color
for  13" monitors only) with the  accelerator.  I was wondering though
how well the accelerator and the 32 Quickdraw work together.  I wonder
if the accelerator "impersonates" the code from Apple or if  the Apple
init overrides the accelerator.    There is  software that  checks for
this  Apple extension explicitly and  unless the accelerator poses for
it, that software will not work.

Any ideas?
