Sure enough 3.1 is worth the download time (heck, I downloaded the 5MB
Win version _three_ times due to installation problems!)
Since you are talking about downloading 1.3 MB, I suppose you mean the
DOS version. I suggest you get the Win version too - that's the one with
the cool new editor Ken talked about.
If you want further reassurance, look at some of the new images in
binaries.images and think what it woult take to produce such effects
(clouds etc) in 3.0x
