To all: I want to get one of the new "accellerator" or "co-processed" video boards for my Northgate 386. I want one that is designed to speed up Windows performance AND also does 640x480x256 colors with Animator Pro. And, of course, I'd like it to be reasonably priced (<$500 street price). Any recommendations??? Thanks.

The ATI Graphics Ultra is supposed to be *hot* about $500.00. Don't know about compatability with Ani Pro though. Mike

Thanks Michael. That's the frustrating part. I want to work in both the Windows environment and in Animator Pro. In fact, the main reason I'm getting a new board is so that I can do 640×480 animations with AAPro. I'll probably wind up getting a Video 7 VRAM II because I know that it will work with AAPro and I've seen that board rated well for Windows, too.
