I could be wrong, but I think the default bit depth of the Vx is 1, not 2,
and the default bit depth of the IIIc is 8. If so, then that is what you
should expect to happen. If you want the device to draw the bitmap in some
depth other than the default, your program has to change the bit depth. See
the docs for WinScreenMode().
