I used to feel this way, but now, even if the misbehaving game is
outrageously good, I don't want it.  Rebooting and reloading all my
software takes too much time to go through it for a brief diversion
(e.g. a game).  Policy:

1) If a game forces a reboot, is copy protected, or interferes with
   standard multitasking (i.e., it was written by a programmer with a
   Commodore 64, IBM PC, or Macintosh mentality), don't buy it.

2) If you get a game home, and then find out it forces a reboot, is
   copy protected, or interferes with standard multitasking, take or
   send it back to where it came from, and get your money back.

I haven't had any trouble getting my money back on the few behavioral
problems I've purchased, and would strongly encourage anyone to do the
same.  Let's get rid of garbage masquerading as Amiga software.
