From: Dave Fuchs <DRF@SU-AI.ARPA> Here's a question for all you hardware hackers out there. The PCjr spends about half of its memory cycles on display-refresh, which is a pretty useless thing to be doing while nothing is changing on the screen. During a long compile, I wouldn't mind if the screen were blank, if that meant that the job ran faster. Has anyone put such a switch on their PCjr? Does anyone actually OWN a PCjr? I'll summarize any replies received, etc. -david (drf@sail)
