I grabbed the source for ACM 2.0 from expo and after much effort was
able to compile it. (ACM is the F16 flight simulator recently announced)

When running on a 320 with 32MB RAM and a greyscale monitor, the update
seems to flicker considerably.  On a monochrome SUN SPARC 1, the display
does not.  Has anyone else tried ACM yet, and had similar experiences?

I'm more curious about the ramifications w.r.t other software than just
this particular piece.  Might this be a side-effect of having greyscale
vs. monochrome?
