Oh yes. I can't believe the quality of the LCD screen -- dead clear pixels, rich colours and a contrast to die for (black IS black). If you are like me and can't wait for a price drop or for more colours to come out (only purple or clear purple for now here), and can't be arse using mail order to save a few bucks, then I suggest going to HMV where you get a free mains power supply too (worth £7) not that you really need one.. Well, back to my rejuvinated old GameBoy games.. Jim PS If you want to write gameboy stuff (to run on an emulator) then goto http://welcome.to/gameboy for a brilliant shareware C dev kit and utils etc. (no Color emulators yet though.) -- ----------------------------------------- James Shaughnessy james@manc.u-net.com http://www.netyaroze-europe.com/~shaughnj -----------------------------------------
