     Aweb is quite good on the Picasso - it's the jpegs that suffer under 256 colour.

     Actually, after toying on IRC last night and webbing and fpt'ing, I'm
setting up a 1600 x 1200 x 256 colour screen - then I can have a 'net
application open in each 1/4 and keep an eye on what's happening.

     I tried it, but it has a few problems correctly displaying the
graphics on a Picasso - from time to time, every other line of the graphic
is missing.
