Thanks for all replies to my previous questions, but
now I have a few more. 1) It had been suggested
to me that a 128 color picture viewer exists - what is
it & where do I get it?  2) What is the common
SAM bitmap format & its specs (so that I might write
my own conversion utility)?  3) Of the vector art
programs that exist for the SAM, do any of them
export/import a useful DTP file format such as EPS
or even better AI (Adobe Illustrator)?

For further debate, I know that one of the SAM
resolutions is 256x192, however I have read in
this forum that SAM pixels aren't square in
this mode.  It seems like this mode should feature
square pixels since 256x192 is 4:3 (normal TV
aspect ratio). The SAM doesn't overscan, however,
and could have this problem due to a funky scan
window shape.

Finally,  I've heard little about the Kaleidoscope
16-bit color kit other than that it is crap.  Nevertheless,
does it work?  What is the resolution?  What
software will support this board?
