Hi, I need some mac users who are using the mac carbon vm 3.6.1b5 to  
check what happens
if you switch to 8bit (256) colors and launch an image. I suspect os-x  
always constructs the window
graphics port as 16bit (thousands) or 32bit (millions) then lets the  
graphics card deal with the 8bit
rendering.

Mind  I don't have proof. Hint, if you switch to 8bit and launch squeak  
then get a white screen, then I've a
candidate VM for you to test.
