What is the STB stands for ? I am shopping for a system with true
24 bits color graphic, I saw a lot of Speedstar 24x, but since I am planning to
program the card directly, Speedstar 24x is out if I cann't get information as
to how to program it. But I have a hard time finding out what other vendors
have a true 24 bits graphics display, anybody ? Also I am also looking at local
bus (so I don't pay penalty for the graphic when running DOS programs using
the local bus as compared with just the accelerated card), but most local bus
graphic seems to only support 32k color.
