Hey, let's have a strangest most crazy ultimate and weird bug ever found
contest. I got the idea for the contest because I think I have the winning
entry.

Anyways, about a half hour ago, I was working on Z3D. To make things short,
the entire screen began scroll, almost like a screwed-up vertical hold on a
TV. very strange. I think the electron beam location is getting screwed
big time. If anyone has the foggiest notion of how this could happen, let
me know, it would be neat to take advantage of. The entire screen was
scrolling, border and all. Oh yeah, how did ACS italicize the text in
their "HAM mode" demo? They switch from graphics to text mode, so the
text is hardware text, not graphics, so, how was it italicized? Makes
me wonder if their are ways to fool the hardware to perform strange effects.


Anyways, let's here what other strange bugs eyou've all had!!
