I recently saw that PC Paintbrush IV was sold.

My question: Is it any good ?

I have used PC-Paintbrush 2.0 for about two years now, it worked perfectly
on my hercules card.
Now I have bought a VGA setup, and would like to use the Super VGA modes
with a paint program (640x480x256, 800x600x256, 800x600x16, 1024x768x16).

More to the point questions about PC-Paintbrush IV:
- Does it use EMS memory if present
- Can it use Super VGA modes (if yes, what board(s))
- Can it use the old fonts
- Has there been any product reviews of it (in Byte ?)

Also: Is there any other paint program that does ALL of these (please don't
start a 'I like this one better).

Thanks to anybody who would like to answer,
