8PRODUCT INFORMATION
9-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
10Durango is a graphics/video software support package designed to assist in the
11development of display drivers and embedded applications. The core of this 
12package is source code that performs most of the graphics related 
13functionality for the National Semiconductor ® Geode family of products.  
14Development time for new software is reduced by using these routines to access
15the hardware.
