	Several people have pointed out that I can pay $2000 for Apple's
video card with an accelarator.  I know this, I'm not an idiot.  I'm just
a simple guy with one monitor and no special urge to pay for a second set
of video circuitry, 24-bit or not.  (I don't have a single piece of software
that uses it.  I'm afraid I don't care how good it looks in theory if I'll
never see it.) 
	I want to buy just an accelarator.  I believe raster-ops has one that 
works with their card, I just want to know if a card exists that works with 
a standard apple 8-bit video card.

	I know people are trying to help but I have to wonder if they
read my original post at all, or just saw the word "accelerator" and decided
to show off that they read press releases too. <shrug>
