THAT'S WHAT I would do now if I was able to switch to it from DOS on my netbook
If you look at my first thread in this forum, I was trying to connect my old NEC CRT to the netbook...
LCDs will probably never be as fast as CRT. From time to time I boot up my old PII-600 (with that CRT monitor) in Dos to replay some games. One of my favorites is "Lost Vikings" and it is really a 'candy for an eye', probably the best platformer I saw on PC... And it doesn't work on my netbook because it has 320x240x8bit mode which the Bios guys forgot to include :(
And by input lag in win32 Duke I meant something else, it isn't constant, but it's proportional to the complexity of the input from keyb and mouse, just like the events are put in some buffer. And in Dos there is nothing like that.
