  33. I wish..  I have a 68030 with 2 megs of 32 bit ram...  (MMR)
  34.  
  35. I am running a mouse accelerator, but it is not a commodity.  I can't
  36. find a commodity mouse accelorator that I like.  I like plain basic
  37. speedup.  Not threshold..  Moving the mouse an inch moves the pointer
  38. the same amount each time, etc..
  39.  
  40. Oh well...  Doesn't really matter, except I can't use EdPlayer, as
  41. someone mentioned earlier in the thread..  It gets SO slow when you
  42. move the paddle that you can't control it.
