- Sorry for being so subtle. Take an older version of Microsoft
- Flight Simulator and run it on your '486+SVGA and what do you get?
- You get CGA style 640 X 200 X 2 graphics. My point was that the Amiga
- version of Wing Commander was written to run on non-AGA versions
- of the Amiga, so when you run it on AGA machines it doesn't come close
- to using the potential of the machine. It seemed more appropriate than
- asking you to compare apples to apples (so to speak :-))

- >2. How the hell did my last post end up in misc?
-
- Dunno, this one did too.
