I just switched back to Switch-A-Roo. Too many weird crashes and strange CLUT
goings ons with DepthGauge.

Also, you can switch between any depth with SAR, you just hold the control key
down to bring up a selector. Normally, I switch between 256 and 16 color
for SimEarth's benefit. But when I want to go to B/W mode (to make my
si actually run quickly) I just hold the control key as well.
