I know is not much, but i received today the 12MB Matrox WRAM upgrade for Millennium II PCI card. With this setup 4 + 12 = 16Mb, now i can fly up to 1920 x 1080 At 32 bit color in OPENSTEP 4.2! And the OPENSTEP desktop looks now just fantastic on 24'' LCD 8) /// The memory module is brand new and was still shrink-wrapped, possibly from 1997! :]:]:]

Here you go! I pictured it with my iPhone the light is bad, here is night now, and not have the patience to compose it more attractively, but i swear i can dance there :] There are few AGP cards that can reach that res. But i didn't have the AGP slot in my P3 machine, so i gone the PCI way. I'm using the version 4.10 of the MGA driver, which seems to be the last one. As i have another same card, will try to build a dual head setup in the upcoming weeks, to see how that works.
Cheers.
