Actually, the SE/30 has a 512x342 display, 1-bit, which requires (512*342)/8
= 21888 bytes of video memory. So, 21K is correct on an SE/30. (Or any
compact Mac, but good luck running it on most of the others.)
I'm keeping tabs on this because as soon as my extra memory and hard drive
come in, I'm going to be trying this on my SE/30...
