Jack, It just amazes me that even after nearly 8 months of getting complaints, Diamond and Panacea are still floundering around for a solution. And, there you guys are…without any fanfare…with working drivers. Just amazing, really! I think Diamond picked the wrong partner. You think ACAD users have problems, Windows users are getting all sorts of GPFs from some 'mainstream' apps. And, if you use your system for Windows, DOS and ACAD apps, you can imagine the frustration. Based on the reviews, I _really_ thought the SS24x was hot stuff. And, if you read Art Liddles "The Next Generation" piece in CADalyst [Feb 93], he says it's impossible to ignore the low price of the Speedstar 24x" and "[it's] biggest advantages are its 24-bit color support, low price, and bundled software. Recommended." Ya know…there was a long thread here about the credentials of 'reviewers.' Do ya think this guy even plugged in the board and tried it? Nope! Do ya think he just read the box? Yup! Well…at least he can read! Eli.
