	Actually, yes it does.  The 701 C&T chipset supports 640x480,
800x600, and 1024x768 (though te 2nd only supports 256 colors, and the
last 16, I believe).  If you're using 3.1 IBM has a nice utility for
changing these on its web site; look for the Video Features diskette.
	But QuickRes basically changes color depth and since posting, the
darn thing has started working perfectly now.  If there *is* a way to
get it to change screen resolution without rebooting, as well, I'd
love to hear about it.  Currently, the dialogue only mentions
color-depth options in the bubble-box that comes up when I pass my
mouse over it.
