I just installed a Sigma Designs portrait monitor on my Mac SE.  While
playing with it, I discovered an interesting characteristic of
Prodigy.  It seems that Prodigy draws everything on the screen,
including text.  It always uses the full size of the screen for its
display, which makes things look a mite peculiar on a full page
display.  It's also a lot slower.

Anyone else tried Prodigy on a big screen?  Does it take forever on a
19" monitor?
