I recently got hold of a copy of Explode 2.03 - this is an absolutely
*amazing* fireworks-type program which I've been using as a screen saver.
The only problem is that it only runs in 16 colours. I've startted mucking
around with it to use more colours, but the changes will only work with a VGA
Wonder - does anyone know if there's a newer version of this around which
works with all VGA's (V 2.03 is from 1989 so I presume there have been some
updates)?

I have version 1.22, and seem to have trouble with it slowing my clock on my IBM PS/2 model 70 when the fireworks are going. I like this screen saver, but having to reset my date and time regularly is something I would rather not do. Keith Mewes mewes@cs.uiuc.edu University of Illinois, Department of Computer Science
