The Amiga itself has 24-bit cards that go as high as 2084 X 2084 interlaced
and 1280 X 1024 non-interlaced.

And I was told once by one of the original NewTek engineers that the
Toaster actually had some 3000 X 2000 (or somewhere in there) mode which
is being used in movie production. ...although you couldn't actually display
it in that mode on any kind of monitor.  But I don't know much about it so
you'd better talk to NewTek.
