Re: Nota Bene and OS/2

["Paul" pbreeze@xxxxxxxx]

I'm interested to read about the 'flicker' experienced by John Gordon. I
have found something similar myself running XYWin under Windows 98 (and 95,
I think though I can't actually remember now). I find it irritating at
times but have discovered no way of getting rid of it. Haven't tried the NB
demo yet.
