I am a musician using Master Tracks Pro to work with my music. MTP uses all standard GEM routines as far as I can tell, and it is therefore very slllloooooowwww. My questions are these: 1. How much of a speed up can I expect from the blitter? 2. Will the monochrome monitor be faster than the Colour? 3. Has anyone heard any rumours about the blitter...like when the normal user will be able to get it? (my 1040st even has the slot for it!) Any help is appreciated, Damian Roskill Updike@Umass
