- I went from a 1024x768x256 Tseng4000 based BOCA to a Diamond
- Stealth.. and the difference was very noticable..
- The problem I have is with Diamond as a product.. I have several problems
- with the drivers for my Stealth and Diamond is not very quick to
- respond.. in fact they may fix the problem and never let me
- know.. I just check their BBS for new drivers.. I have seen
- similar comments about the SpeedStar..
- I am considering moving the Local Buss using the ATI Ultra Pro
- and dumping Diamond altogether..
