Well, it's slower than a turtle trying to walk backwards here. I can type
stuff and it'll appear on the screen a second later - not the sort of thing
a touch-typist likes to see.

I've tried it on every screen mode I can, albeit on my Picasso 2. 640x480,
800x600, 1024x768, 256 colours, 32 colours, 16.7 million - all the same
speed.. slow. Can't use AGA as the monitor won't sync down (not because
it's a fancy PC monitor, it's 14 years old!).

Maybe it's Picasso96. I keep hearing about Cybergraphics 4, but I can't
afford it right now.
