Ordered and paid when there were some money - more than one year later it was shipped. With EIGHTEEN PAGES OF DOCUMENTATION!!! And no info at all how to reach the 34010, just info how to use a dozen routines to draw a line etc. I wrote Microway in England, they referred back to the new Swedish representative, who sent me the same 18 pages and obviously knew less than I did. The graphics it comes as 640x350 = EGA! Somewhat extensible, but I cannot get 800x600 noninterlaced, as I can with the VGA card just beside it! I am thoroughly disappointed - is there anyone who can give me some additional info? |-------------------------------------------------------------| | Want to talk to me?
