Years ago, programmers would execute routines to do stuff specifically during the VBI. If you can do that, then you should be able to execute much more during the period of time between keypresses, which is so much longer.< g >
Again no argument. My take is that higher CPU speed allowed the designers to think out of the box. Frankly still a tough thing for me to do especially on issues/options like this (ie repeating lots of processing on every keystroke).
