Cool toy! Haven't ever done much with mine, but "Virtual Desktop" with a zoom out for an overall preview was hot stuff back in the day. The IIci was the de-facto queen of the burgeoning DTP industry and needed every slot it had filled to get by, a two'fer card was a revelation! Few of the "free lancers" had money for more that the 13" HiRes Display in terms of Color and settled on FPDs-n-TPDs in Single Bit or Greyscale mode for their large work areas.

Big Ad Agencies could afford Multi k$ 21" Color TPDs, not to mention scanner prices 8-o , so the "Virtual desktop" feature wasn't all that important to them. But for the little guy/gal on a budget, the GS TPD workspace coupled with a small Color CRT was a winning combination. PageMaker and later Quark work windows on the Bigass GS TPD with the palettes and previews in color on the small monitor. PhotoShop on the Small color monitor for 24 bit Pixel Punchin' and the palettes on the GS TPD. Illustrator could go either way, but the real pros used Freehand more often than not.

Whatever, it was a great time to be involved at NYMUG! [] ]'>
