	I did. I was impressed; too bad it looks evil at 2.8Mhz, and looks
	evil at 10Mhz too; put it at 5.1 and it looks so-so... :-/

: I've been waiting in eager anticipation for some feedback about it! 
: It's a great piece of code for anyone interested in coding a cool game,
: demo or whatever... and its FREE for anyone to use!!!

	Uhh... it's not great. Seriously... I've done star scrollers;
	up, down, left, right, forward, and backward (never did rolling
	ones thou). It's not impressive for the fact that it crashes
	or won't let me quit half the time: So I went and re-wrote some
	of it, plus optimized a small amount. Yay. Other than that, I
	give it two thumbs up: Good job, GyruS guys!

: We're supposed to be trying to develop stuff on the gs, aren't we?  I
: thought that people would be going crazy for a free 3-D Stars routine...

	I guess... it's so-so.
