You did got it right, but nothing prevents you from installing & uninstalling the snapshot drivers for specific purposes (such as playing a game). I believe this is true for most people. I, for example, can't even have 3D with more than 640x480 since I just have 4MB memory. So, except for development, I use it for a playing a couple of games. Anyway, I believe that in two months we could have most of these limitations sorted out. José Fonseca _______________________________________________________________ Have big pipes?
