Ok, I have an A3000/030/25MHz/WB v2.1 with an IV-24.  I'm getting into 
making ANIMs with DPaint IV and the like, and I notice that when I try to 
scroll a title of a significant size on the screen (i.e. from top to 
bottom) the ANIM slows down as more of the title appears on the screen.

So, I'm thinking that a graphics card will remedy this?  What are my 
options?  What graphics cards will speed up the Amiga's display *and* are 
cheap?  Can a graphics card speed it up considerably, enough to, say, 
allow me to make a scrolling ANIM that moves pixel by pixel?

Please e-mail me with any help...

Thanks.
