I think the MGAII is the fastest thing around, but not for DOS (Altamira should FLY! with the MGAs). Now that vibrant has MGA support I'm thinking of getting another one to replace my Hercules Graphite. Definitely loose that Impression. The MGA cards are a whole different ball o' wax. The MGAII top of the line does 1152 at 24 bits, and the MGA I PRO does 1280×1024, plus has 3D accelerator hardware. Pavel Korensky is currently working on a 3D render/preview IPAS that will specifically use the MGA 3D hardware. Also, #9 just came out with an inexpensive 64bit graphics accelerator that's supposed to be real nice. I don't know any more about it, though. John Tissavary (LUNA cie)
