In the Unix-Corner of CBM`s booth (is this the right word???) there
were two A3000/UX with the 2410 (lowell board). There was also an A3000
with the Visiona card, running OS 2.0. They had some sort of workbench
support (copying the screenram to the visiona-video ram, quite slow) and
promised lots of libraries similar to graphics.l and intuition.l to make
proting as easy as possible.

It where both cards, but just one ran X. But a X device driver was promised,
too.
