Okay, correction time.. The Diamond card probably will use the queer
timings as always. So one could probably do oneself a favour by avoiding
Diamond products and going for a SVGA card from another comapany
incorporating the Weitek P9000 chip, perhaps the card by Orchid.
I dont know of many other cards than the Diamond Viper which use the Weitek
P9000, can anyone list them?
