560 info: There is a command/function sequence to make standard VGA and 640x480 fit full screen, but it does not look too good (IMHO). I think you will have to judge for yourself, depending on the game you want to play. I play DOS games on my TP560-133 with no problems. I would suggest that you get the newest VESA SVGA drivers from SciTech (previously univesa). You may also consider purchasing a SCSI PC Card with a SCSI CD-ROM for best game play of the newest games. Not sure about a place for memory, but I would suggest sticking with major brands like Kingston and Viking.
