Oh. When I was still young, ALL "real" demo code was done in assembly and 
most "real" code still is.  In demos you're supposed to squeeze that one 
little ounce
of juice out of the hardware better than all the rest. On a 486/VLB
everybody can do a little gus player and a simple scroller in (even)
viusal c++ , but then what`s the pooint in that.  I suggest
you start messing around w/ your asembler, after all demo coding is about
polising those small routines so they'll shine in a nuclear accident. 

..just my thoughts , sorry about the messy edit, but this lag is deadly.
