Lots to like about this, plenty going on, clever use of colours, and another old school style demo pulled off :)

Very cool and well done!
The demo slowed down when there were many letters on screen at once though.

That's odd, my little laptop doesn't have any issues with it.  Although the speed isn't consistent as the 'space' isn't drawn so I guess it would speed up a little when there are spaces to be 'displayed'.  I'll have a little look to see if I can squeeze a bit more out of it.  I didn't do any real optimising as it wasn't doing a huge amount.

[EDIT] Okay, I've done some tweaking although it was fairly optimised to start with.  Can you let me know if it still slows down please.  It's hard to test here as it doesn't slow down for me.

Very cool indeed mate; I like the way the text goes through the object.
I have noticed that the music plays before the demo starts, something for you to look into for next time.

Cool Business,
Clyde.

I hadn't even considered that, thanks Clyde, I've changed it so that the music starts after the initialisation and screen setup and re-uploaded it.

Thanks, and now I know more about the limitations of modern OS's and Displays, I'll be more careful in future ;)
