I have an ATI VGA Wonder /w 512KB and BIOS ROM V3.5. Can I upgrade it to
a newest one, such as Wonder+ 1MB? Does Wonder+ /w 1MB exist? 
I don't want anything already released to vendors but with some snail(?) in it.
If you know, please mail me how to upgrade and the cost.

By the way when will they announce the new ATI Wonder XL? Do you know anything
about that board spec. such as resolutions and colors supported, s/w drivers, etc?

Thanks in advance.
