SC>I am interested in HiColor pictures.. or rather True Color pictures, ie
  >at 640x480 resolution with 32K colors would make any game much more

True Colour is 16.7m, however being able to do both 16.7m and 32K, I can't
personally see a difference at 640x480 on a .28dp monitor.

I'd think higher resolution would be more important in a game then
even more colours.

SC>I would be interested in hearing anyone working with HiColor for any
  >game programming.

Abrash was fooling around with HiColour when it first appeared, grab some Dobbs
if you don't have them already.
