   I'm not sure that the NOVA is limited to 32k colors.   
      
   The NOVA Plus 32 with 1 meg of Ram will get you....   
   640x480x24bit   
   800x600x32k   
   1024x768x256   
      
   Also the graphics cards memory effects the number of colors you can get,   
   in a particular resolution.   
   My understanding of this is that if you upgrade the Nova's Memory, you can   
   get   
   more Colors in Higher Resolutions.   
      
   I think that any Nova will give you at least 640x480x24bit,   
   but I may be wrong as I have no info on a graphics card called just   
   a "NOVA".   
      
      
   BTW, anyone know about a graphics card with the main chip labeled as   
   TRIDENT?
