I have a former 12 inch passive display wallstreet. I have a 14 inch active matrix LCD monitor from a more recent wallstreet on it. I have OS 10.3 on the beast ( it has a g4 upgrade card, blue chip) and it definitely has 2 megs ram on the motherboard. in Panther it is best to run in 8 bit color. In Jaguar it was able to run in the next higher resolution but something has changed in the ATIrage stuff in Panther.
I have attempted to install a wallstreet II logic board and bottom. This was a no go. No video at any port, vga, Svga, or LCD. I had to give up and put the 2 meg bottom back on. I have the 12 inch display in a bag if anyone has use for it let me know. Till Then ...
