IMHO I don't want to play those shit games that disable multitasking and steal the display. I bought my Amiga because of its multitasking ability! Why should I pay money for a stupid program that disables the main feature of the computer? You could as well turn off the display and tell the user to connect a Decwriter to the serial port to play the game. >3. Should game detect extra memory/diskdrives/processors? Yes, yes, yes. >4. Should game be exitable? Yes, of course! -- Markku Kolkka mk59200@tut.fi
