Nice note David. Tom
Hi Ara, And to read how much you liked the PAR *before* you got it repaired! 🙂 Glad it's working even better…. Tom
= grin = 🙂 and different variations. How else can you show your teeth on CIS? …. Tom
Thanks for the info Don. I saw some presentations from FAST here in Germany and am interested in how it really works for a user. Good luck with the work. BTW, where are you located? Tom
Hi Don, How do you like your FAST board? Can you tell me what are some of the other comprable boards on the market? Thanks, Tom
Aaaah, you mean I have to change the way I work??? Tom

Hi Brian, Regarding the demise of "What's New", I like the catalogue file, I like the fact that files don't sit in Lib 9 for 6 months, but I really, really, REALLY (sorry – it's the influence of a visiting 4 year old ) miss the daily message of "new…

MEMORY MADNESS
Message #132261
Hi Scott, PMJI, I saw your note on adding more RAM. I'm running with 16MB and sometimes find that to be limiting . If you know what the ultimate capacity of your motherboard is (ie: 32MB), then think about 4 MB SIMMs and adding more than 16 MB. You won't…
Hi Phil, Sounds good. If you have any further questions on ELSA cards, I'd be glad to help out. Regards, Tom
Phil, You might like to call ELSA at 800-2727-ELSA and ask for information about their WINNER 1000 and WINNER 2000 controllers. Both have memory configurations that allow them to do true color and high color at various resolutions (up to 24 bit/pixel at 1024 and 16-bit/pixel at 1280). They also…
Hello Max, You might be interested in a WINNER 1000VL. It will take 2Mb and adjust to almost any monitor. We write our own drivers for Windows, ADI products, and Animator Pro. For more info, call ELSA GmbH 49/241-9177-0. Regards, Tom
Jake, And to think that I just bought "If it ain't Broke, Break it!" this weekend. Good reading!! Thanks for the endorsement Tom
Steven, Call me biased, but I suggest that you keep your GT Express! In fact, look for Release 3.0 next month. It will come packed with drivers for SVGA, 8514, TIGA, and S3. It will also have a new release of AutoCLIC that will include our GT Utilities, several ADS…
Evan, Where was your XJS… on vacation? Tom
Jake, Actually, the benchmarks that I referred to were run on a 486/25. Since our XJS is optimized for total system performance, it will also run faster on a 486/50 (like S3, 8514, Hitachi) and, IMHO, it will probably still be 2x faster… I'll let you know! Tom Lansford
Craig, Thanks for the good word… what ARTIST products do you use? Tom
Brad, *************** The "over $1000" boards don't offer any more real horsepower than coprocessed boards. By this I mean that their vector drawing speeds are in the same ballpark. They do, however, often include some nice software that takes advantage of the board's capabilities. Rasterex is a good example of…
Brad, No problem… I realize that *you* know something about our products, but many people think "high-end" and are not aware that it can also be affordable, too. Tom
