DOS cards as found on 630 DOS Compatible Macs were limited to 32 MB RAM. Try running Win98 in 32 MB RAM :-( You could run Win95 (I used to) but I found there was also a (serious) limitation with this card. It's highest video display was 800 x 600 at 4bit resolution - 16 colors in total. Just pitiful. You could get 8bit color at 640 x 480 IIRC, like OS/2 and NT, you could not install and run Win98 on this card either. Later PCI, Pentium type DOS cards were probably the way to a better Windows experience on a Mac. - But that's getting OT. Mike -- Quadlist is sponsored by <http://lowendmac.com/> and...
