If not, I shan't be bothering to upgrade my Win 1.0 - >version (I have AD 2.0 on the Mac to appreciate really cute screensavers). I didn't use version 1.0, so I can't comment on the relative performance. However, even when set for maximum cmplexity I find the performance very good (however, I am running AD on a fast 486). At least some of the modules (Aquatic realm, and a few others) can do 256 color support (and, I believe, hi-color support if you have the right Win drivers). I've had a number of unexplained crashes that *might* be due to AD 2.0, although I haven't identified the problem yet. * Origin: SeaHunt BBS, PCBoard / HST-DS 1-415-431-0227 (8:914/501)
