- Just a small comment - the graphics routines have been rewritten to take use of
- the processor, i.e. not the blitter (I think it was) as it used to be. Hence, only
- machines with processors faster than the 68000 will notice any speedup.
-
- On my A3000 they were _fast_ in comparison to 2.0, although I haven't got the exact
- data now.
-
- Or so I've been told, anyway...:-D
