I thought you could easily ask the Second Sight board to do the scrolling for
you? I thought you can use the 320x200x256 or 640x200x256 mode (I am refering
to these two, because many would still want to use the Apple monitor)? I
thought AppleWorks GS, ProTerm, etc that I mentioned are not games?

I would consider purchasing software that support Second Sight, even though
it is 8 bit. Or even a game. Some games need better graphics then better
sound, like card games.

And of course, if AppleWorks or ProTerm support Second Sight, I might be very
interested in getting a new version.
