If the AES doesn't use the mouse and other facilities of the VDI, then it would seem these functions are nearly useless. Second, when graphics cards are added to an Atari, is a .SYS driver given, or is a whole replacement VDI used? Is there documentation on the format of the .SYS VDI drivers? Where can I find out this information? -- Evan
