Glen,

Excuse me for butting in here, but I have a 1 meg MM/1 (waiting for the I/O
board) and I don't have any trouble viewing 640 X 480 by 256 color GIF's. I am
using Windio edition #22 from disk #6 and GIFshow edition #5. On the Magnavox
8CM515 I have connected to the MM/1 there is a little flicker at the top of the
screen but the colors look great and the picture (over 209K file) looks about
as good as it does on the multi-sync monitor I have on my 386 machine. It's
really slow loading in from floppy though. Can't wait for the I/O board and
hard drive.

P.S. Just tried the -l option with gifshow on the MM/1. Without using the -l
option I have 230.5K of memory free and the picture fills the entire screen.
Using -l, I have 270.5K of memory free and the picture is reduced in size (as
you would expect).

Ernie.
