"It's a Voodoo3, so I suppose I have to run it in 3 colours."  Actually, my
monitor is on the fritz and having little seizures, but it's an OK 17" set.  I
still run at 800x600, though--1024x768 is too tiny for me!  I do love my
Voodoo3, however.

But back to the subject, we have neither ADSL nor cable internet here in the
middle of New Jersey (shocking!)--at least until next month.  I'm waiting so
that I can get DSL and be done with it!  Right now the only option is ISDN,
which is way way way too expen$ive for mere mortals like myself.

(...) How about the people who buy their spiffy new computer with a 17" monitor and 16MB AGP graphics card and run it in the default 640x480 16-color mode? Are you concerned about them? I bet they're a majority. :) (27 years ago, 18-Sep-99, to lugnet.general)
