Hi Jan Van De Belt!

At present, Breadbox apps are marketed only by mail by Geiga. But we
take Bankcard, Visa, Mastercard, cheques, money orders or send C.O.D.
in order to make it as easy as possible for customers. :-) The Breadbox
drivers now sell for $33.95 plus $3.00 postage.

Trident 9420 and 9440 both work with the new drivers.
 JVDB> The monitor will run 256 colours 640x480 (max).
Sounds as if it is a VGA rather than an SVGA monitor.
 JVDB> Would the Breadbox video drivers solve my problems?
With 1MB memory you should (in theory) be able to run 640 x 480 x 16.7
million colours. In accordance with Australian law we offer a 14-day
limited warranty, the terms of which are given in the documentation
accompanying the drivers. The warranty permits you to return the
software if it is unsatisfactory, providing you return it in the same
condition in which it was sold.  If you have Internet access, I would
suggest that you first download ABOUTVPP.ZIP from my Web site
(http://www.ozemail.com.au/~pensey). This will give you the full story
of the new drivers. I can send it to you as an email attachment or post
you a copy if you give me an address.
WebMagick has not yet been released, but Breadbox Computer has joined
forces with another company to develop the necessary connection under
Geos 2.xx. Once this is successfully completed, the product will be
marketed and further development of WebMagick will be undertaken to
bring it up to then prevailing HTML standards.
Regards
Peter Campbell
