If sliced ham can be done Is it just me, or is anyone else out there getting disturbed by all of the dynamic/sliced/diced/minced display modes involving cpu-intesive activity, just to bring up the image? I mean, what are things migrating toward here? SHAM is not a friendly or very practical thing to be working with (in paint programs, or for that matter, for anything on this *multitasking* machine). The hardware should display the images, and the software should NOT have to worry about them. (you know what I mean) We definitely need drastically improved graphics in the A3000. That's all I can say. +--------------------------------+--------------------------------------------+ | Jeff Bevis | "But I don't like spam!" | | bevis@en.ecn.purdue.edu | Give me Amiga or nothing at all. | +--------------------------------+--------------------------------------------+
