/* ---------- "Z-buffering on RS/6000" ---------- */
There was some discussion a few weeks ago about the IBM RS/6000 series
and it graphcis capibilites.  At the time I gave it only passing
interest but recently someone wanted to know if some code I'd written
could be ported to the RS/6000.  I looked back over the earlier
messages and decided that the 24 bit system probably could run the
software if it had the z-buffering hardware.  Does anyone know
if the RS/6000 supports z-buffering in hardware or software and
to what depth.

thanks in advance.
