That is correct, except for DCTV, which does the same thing we do in the sense that they get thir info direct from the screen. However, and I have this right from the mares mouth (DCTV developers) DCTV's composite encoding causes pixels very far away from the pixel you're interested to have an effect on the current local pixel – similar to HAM mode, but worse, _according to them_. That might make blitter animation pretty rough. We'll have to wait and see. Blitter ops with the HAM-E can be seen by anyone, even w/o the device. Just DL the paint software and cut a brush. :^) Ben Amateur Radio Callsign is A A 7 A S
