Yep--a little faster than on the real hardware! ;-) BTW, I was being habitually conservative with the multipliers, since RND() always returns a value less than 1. To light up dots in *all* rows and columns, use: 110 HPLOT 280*RND(1), 192*RND(1) Of course, the result is quite similar. The mottled texture of dots that results in the stationary display kind of reminds me of the COBE maps of the cosmic background radiation--"the face of God". Talk about "primordial soup"! ;-) -michael NadaPong: Network game demo for Apple II computers!
