iBook video memory--beyond 8 megs?
hi. maybe some of you know me by now (yeah right... how self-absorbed am i) but in the likely event you don't, i'm the guy with an ibook 600/256/20/dvd.
anyway, i keep looking at games that i may install in this thing in the future, and i've noticed that many of them require more than 8 megs of video ram. now, i heard or read somewhere *faintly* that the ibook has the ability to "steal" some ram from the main memory to use as video ram in addition to its 8 megs. is this true? or am i dreaming?
and even if it's true or not, should i get those games that may need more than 8 megs?
i've been wondering about this for quite some time now.
