#Picasso/3.1 setup
3 messages in this thread
Jimwith 3.1 will my A2000 which has 18megs GVP040 and a Toaster work as
reliably as it does now? And how much power does a Picasso use?
Case is kind of full… And are these benefits worthwhile without AGA, What
paint package would I use in place of Dpaint/Brilliance which are based on
Customchips under a Picasso/3.1 setup?
John,

Not 100% sure about the Toaster, but I suspect your system will work better
with the Picasso than it does now; my A2000/040 28megs memory with the
Opalboard (which also goes into the video slot like the Toaster) works like a
dream! I don't know how much power the Picasso uses, but I wouldn't imagine it
was much.
< And are these benefits worthwhile without AGA>
In my opinion (been using the Picasso since Jan) absolutely! I'm a very
happy Picasso user!

You have your choice of several. TV Paint (you'll get the Jr. version with
your board), Photogenics, Personal Paint or XIPaint all work perfectly with the
Picasso board.

I have heard of compatability problems w/ 3.1 Ados and the toaster, but I am
not a video-head so I can't add anything more.
