Here's a couple of questions:
(1)Is DJGPP suitable for game programming?
(2)Since Direct Memory Access is almost impossible ( correct me if I'm
   wrong ) ... is there another alternative that can yield the same
   performance as DMA?
(3)Is Allegro a good graphics library ... i mean does it render graphics
   at high speed ( comparable to that of DMA )?

Thanx
