In the PC world, it's now easy to get a super VGA board with a new kind of
DAC chip that accepts 15-bit direct color, beyond the standard 256 color
VGA. This add-on DAC costs about $75, added to a $400 super VGA card…
it comes with Windows drivers, too. Blasting bits into 15-bit pixels is
much more efficient than traditional VGA, so this board can be *faster*
than VGA.
