Bjarne:

If you set your monitor bit-depth to thousands of colors (16bit), everythin=
g
displays properly.  Although, things do run a bit more slowly on the text
console, which, by the way, will now be white text on black background.

I just installed Color X on my LC III about an hour or so ago, and I think
it's friggin' cool!

Ahem, I mean, William.   (Sorry about that, I was watching Welcome back
Kotter, on Prime!)
