Hi All!

Here's what I need help on:
I am writing a program that will require two displays, one that the
audience and user will see, and one that only the user will see.  I have
thought of conecting two A500s together, but would prefer to use one
A2000.  Any ideas on how to accomplish this?  My thoughts are: have the
display that the audience will see to be the normal Amiga display (out
of the RGB port), while the display that the user will see will be a
frame buffer.  How fast can a framebuffer be updated (such as the
firecracker)?  The use of this display will be to have menus that the
user manipulates to control the main display that the audience sees, so
there is no need for animation.
Please e-mail me your responses, and thanx in advance.

                                        -Dave
