Herb,

Consider SuperMac's TrueColor TradeUp Program.  For $3999, we'll take your old
chunky planar RasterOps ColorBoard 64 and then give you our Spectrum/24 video
card and a $1500 refund.

Remember that even though we have 32-Bit QuickDraw, Apple has NOT define
how the extra 8-bit (aka Alpha channel) will be used.  And a 32-bit video would
be more expensive that a 24-bit video card that supports 32-Bit QuickDraw.
