Co., Inc., Everett, WA Lines: 18 <...> I am looking for information leading to the answer to the question: "Can the ST be reconfigured in software to have > 640 bit resolution in the horizontal axis?" One thing I appreciate about my computer is the 132 column terminal that I use when I need to see a bunch of stuff at once. I have been putting off picking up an ST because the graphics display appears to be limited to 80 columns, which is not sufficient for my needs. The fact that I can open a window and scroll it sideways is NOT the same thing. From reading the BYTE article on the AMIGA graphics chip set, the above mentioned trick appears not to be possible for them due to bus bandwidth limitations. Does anybody know if the same limitation applies to the ST? terry mason ( entropy@fluke )
