	The TurboRez does all its stuff with a standard GS monitor,
the SS does not. The cost of a SS + SVGA monitor is actually more than
just the TurboRez.

	First, SS isn't really cheaper, it just seems that way. The
board itself is cheaper, but to use it fully, it's at least as expensive
as the TR, if not more so. Secondly, there is more to the GS software
development community and just Procyon. The TR is far better suited for
games and demos, which is mainly what my GS will be doing for the rest
of it's natural life :)
