My goodness.  I have read plenty of messages from Darek that made me lose  
respect for him.  This, however, is _not_ one of them.  All of what Darek  
said seemed level-headed and well documented, down to the calculations of  
bytes transferred in screen redraws.  Most of csullogg's responses were  
infantile and often incorrect.  I think he disgraced himself (and not  
Darek) in this post.

By the way, the slowness of Pagestream redraws is due to poor algorithms  
and/or coding, not the speed of the ST.  DTP programs for the mac redraw  
quite satisfactorily under Spectre GCR on a stock ST.  Take a look at  
Calamus if you'd like to see the result of good redraw algorithms.  If  
pagestream is depressing you, don't upgrade your machine, pressure  
SoftLogik to upgrade the program to make it usable.
