                Sounds interesting, but I'll believe it when I see it.
Also,
this really sounds like a totally new card: if this can be done by
software,
the GUS fans would of been bragging about it all over town by now (but
then,
of course, I could be wrong, that GUS owners already know this and
they are
keeping it to themselves :-) ). I mean, why else would they charge an 
additional ~$100 bucks just for extra 256K?!? Gotta be kiddin' me...
 
                Like I said, I'll believe it when I see (in this case,
hear)
it. Next thing you know, someone will tell me that yes, you too can
own your
own VR environment: yes, The Holodeck, in your bedroom! Of course,
this could 
be a trick gimmick dreamed up by Gravis, like Sega's so called 
"Blast Processing"....
 
                Hey, I mean, if Gravis does come through, then kudos
for them.
And in case if any of you are wondering, NO, I'm not anti-Gravis. Nuff
said..
 
The above was quoted.
 
Actually I do believe it.  I just spoke to someone who came from
Comdex and he told me about about a product which could
do exactly that.
 
I hope it's just a daughter board upgrade or something.
