instructions won't work on 8088 and 286 machines. That's rectifiable;
equivalent multiplication and division routines could be implemented for

The distribution of execution time in the animation code is no longer

`FixedMul()` and `FixedDiv()` is costly. Much of this is correctable
with a little carefully crafted assembly language and a lookup table;
I'll provide that shortly.
