I am looking for some new, and interesting vga software. Does anyone know of anything good (not drawing programs) out there? Ala games, or some type of graphics program? Thanks.. Glenn Ford BBS: 301-972-6131 HOME: 301-972-2310 UUCP: ..uunet!ocsmd!glenn

It's a "breakout" variant with a "playing field" bigger than the vga screen, i.e. when you move the "paddle" to one side of the screen, the screen scrolls sideways to show you the rest of the playing area. On a fast machine, this sideways scroll is quite impressive (it's great on the PS/2 70 at work; the scroll is somewhat slow on my '286 at home, but still playable). It uses nice, bright colors, and makes a good VGA demo. Scotters =============================================================================== Scott D.
