Some of us were using calculators in school exams in the 1970s. Maybe it was a NZ thing? :-) And writing graphics programs that had to fit in 6 KB of core memory (real core, not semiconductor) along with the interpretor (OS? What's that?) and the output device was a teletype with a roll of yellow paper. Today the kiddies think they are being tortured if they don't have a lightening fast 3D eye-candy GUI even though it serves no purpose. _______________________________________________ Open-graphics mailing list [email protected] http://lists.duskglow.com/mailman/listinfo/open-graphics List service provided by Duskglow Consulting, LLC (www.duskglow.com)
