Please get this garbage off the net! We're carrying on a serious technical discussion here and we don't need this sort of facetious drivel tying up the phone lines and wasting my tax dollars!! What I want to know is: (1) Does anyone have an implementation of GKS for the EGA board in 8008 assembler? (2) I just bought an Apple II and I want to know how to get NTSC video out of it so I can make great films like Luxo Jr. (3) What's the formula to convert RGB to luminance? I've been using sin(R)+atanh(G)*log(B), but I'm getting strange results.
