Yeah, I guess it was you.  Thanks. :-)

On to another question....what is about the fastest method of updating 
screens?  Has anyone managed to use "chopper" glasses and do animation
at the same time?  It would entail updating 2 pages of video every 60th
second.  Is this possible?  Anything slower would be out of the question
since flicker would become tiresome.

Has anyone messed with that Nintendo head laser thingy and trying to get
it hooked to a PC?
