Indeed, when I can practically WATCH the pixels being drawn on its built-in basic when it prints a message, the only conclusion I could draw is that the machine is vastly underpowered CPU wise for what it wants to do.<br /><br />A couple of months ago though an old amiga demo group released a demo (http://pouet.net/prod.php?which=56761) which really shows off the machines capabilites.<br /><br />(not my favorite 8bit demo though, because:<br />a. the authors are VERY cocky<br />b.
