I browsed thru my old dos util directory today, found an old program called
"america.exe" which is just fireworks by another name. Anyway I
ran it full screen on my 24" dell widescreen/duo 2 machine and it was
so fast you almost couldn't tell what it was. Laughed good over that..

I'm thinking regens/redraws in autocad 2 wouldn't require any waiting at all..
