No.. obviously 16 colours is one hell of a lot faster, but using FBlit,
a few other choice patches (I'm assuming seeeeeecret atm ;) it goes
like crazy on this 68060. I'd go so far as to say it's almost usable.

I did run in 64 colours at one point.. in fact I should again, icons
rarely use more than that, Glowicons uses a 32 colour palette and
I do all my web browsing on another screen ;)

Thanks
