I think I'm running 16 bpp on a Mach32 with 2M DRAM at 1024x768. Heck, 
what do i know? I'll daemonstrate (pun intended) with a question, "How
do I use this artwork for my X root window background?" It appears I
need to change its format from jpeg to something else, or I need a
utility that knows how to read jpeg.

Thanks for the great OS, and the great pictures. I too am waiting for
this to be available as a poster... I didn't get a plushie so this time
I'm not going to miss the poster.
