Cleartype was implemented for LCD screens to provide better anti-aliasing effects. I'm surprised Apple II would use it since it used a CRT monitor. In CRT monitors, slightly altering a beam of red, green, blue is a lot easier since there is much more flexibility whereas with LCD, once you place a red, green, or blue diode, it isn't going anywhere...

Not only that, but CRT monitors with ClearType hurt my eyes.

Exception: Any ClearType effects on the GBA don't hurt at all, even on emulator. This is because I play at 2x screen size.

Weird: CRT ClearType is the only known reason for a monitor to hurt my eyes. Ever.

so, having a refresh rate of 60Hz doesn't do anything to you either? My friend has issues when the refresh rate is too low...

I actually use a refresh rate of 60hz. I'm not that effected by it. Even if many people see it as a refresh rate.

Althought my old 486 monitor is painful to use for some reason. I have gotten headaches from it.

Nah, refresh rates don't harm me. I've physically adapted to using computers. Don't get RSI either.

I remember this game--i was good at this game too because I watched the PBS show. If it wasn't for the show and the game, I probably wouldn't be as good as Geography as I am today

Well she sneaks around the world from Kiev to Carolina,
She's a sticky-fingered filcher from Berlin down to Belize,
She'll take you for a ride on a slow boat to China,
Tell me where in the world is Carmen Sandiego?

Steal their Seoul in South Korea, make Antarctica cry Uncle,
From the Red Sea to Greenland they'll be singing the blues,
Well they never Arkansas her steal the Mekong from the jungle,
Tell me where in the world is Carmen Sandiego?

She go from Nashville to Norway, Bonaire to Zimbabwe,
Chicago to Czechoslovakia and back!

Well she'll ransack Pakistan and run a scam in Scandinavia,
Then she'll stick 'em up Down Under and go pick-pocket Perth,
She put the Miss in misdemeanor when she stole the beans from Lima,
Tell me where in the world is Carmen Sandiego?
Oh tell me where in the world is... Oh tell me where can she be?

Ooh, Botswana to Thailand, Milan via Amsterdam,
Mali to Bali, Ohio, Oahu...!

Well she glides around the globe and she'll flimflam every nation,
She's a double-dealing diva with a taste for thievery,
Her itinerary's loaded up with moving violations,
Tell me where in the world is Carmen Sandiego?

  1. 60Hz is slow???
  2. I HATE Carmen Sandiego. I remember an alien thingy that was one of her henchmen, though, and that was cool. I also hate those fuckers who called me gumshoe. More like shoe IN YOUR FACE when I'm KICKING YOU, FUCKER. Yeah, that's right, bow down before Captain BURNS.
