Subject: LC475 and 24bit color?


I'm wondering why, when it has the VRAM upgrade,
I can only get a max of 256 colors from that LC475?

Does it have something to do with the AppleVision 14
monitor and the fact that I don't have the AppleVision
software installed?

I've been too busy to try the Color Plus monitor on
it. :( This weekend for sure, in between washing
loads of clothes.

The LC475 is spoken for, I just need to fiddle with
a few things more then get it boxed and weighed for
shipping.



Yes, the size of the monitor DOES affect the colors the 475 will produce.
And with only one VRAM slot, you'll not get more than 16 colors anyway under
usual
conditions with the 512k chip.

There are two VRAM slots in this LC475. Apparently
full of two 256K VRAM SIMMs for a total of 512K.
S, at 640x480 or higher all it gives is 256
colors.
