>> …stay away from Diamond if possible. I've been reading that the ATI >> Turbo Pro is even faster and perhaps better supported… I went that route. I dumped the Viper and got the ATI Mach64 thing. It's pretty cool, fast and does 24 bits in 1224×1024 what I was looking for. The problem is that the Vibrant driver has some major problems with it. PC-NFS, the stuff I use for networking, doesn't like it either. Support is indeed great though. I called and someone answered immediately, I told my problem, they hadn't heard about it and took notes. A couple of days later they called me saying they had found the problem and they were working on it with Sun. They said they would call me as soon as they had a fix. I never got beyond the answering machine over Diamond.
