I had the opportunity to play falcon for a few moments on an SE/30.  The 
program really screamed, but for some reason the screen would blink at a
constant interval.  While the screen would blink the fields that should
be hidden would flash (such as the AB indicator). It seemed to be some
strange phenomenon with the screen refresh.
	I am not sure what version of the game I was playing, but the 
blinking was annoying.  Other than that, the game really smoked on an
SE/30.
