At first, I cursed the graphics, then we upgraded os to 4.0.1. It really helped. I still think that 386i s/w or basic architecture put a basic limit on the performance, but it is acceptable. For excellent performance, you'll have to look for graphics accelerators in the (hopefully near) future. Peter Di Prete NEC America 922-3829 ...!sun!snail!ernie!peter
