- Sorry, but this question wasn`t raised by me ..... I only stated that
- CGFX is slower compared to retinaemu, so some people still use retinaemu
- instead.

- CGFX is available for some boards, but not for all. (e.g. not for RetinaZ2,
- RainbowIII). Unfortunately there aren`t any dox about writing your own driver
- available, so you`re not able to adapt your card to the "standard".

- Faster is not true, compared to RetinaEMU using a Z3, or compared to EGS7.2.
- (EGS is about 2.5 times faster on a EGS-Spectrum)
