2.0 Known problems
==================
o Joystick control 'absolut' is unstable.----------------------------------
The physical joystick hardware is implemented very cheap in the most
cases. Soundeffects for example may move the racket a little bit
randomly.
o The game seems to pause sometimes with heavy action.---------------------
Some sound drivers use very much time to stop Sound. If you have one
of these, you may disable sound effects.
o No second mouse support with Windows NT.
o Window to small (some graphics are cut off)? Try a smaller system font!
o The 32 Bit Version of Winbrick96 did not run with Windows 32s
(extension to Windows 3.x)!
