If you want me to *buy* the game then I want it to use available resources,
be friendly to the OS, not force a boot or a reboot, not have disk-based
copy protection, well...you get the picture.  Some of these are negotiable.
Give me the option of speeding up play by turning off multi-tasking and
as long as you turn it back on when you exit then I am happy.  I also
do several things at once when I use my machine and I don't want to be
forced to reboot and wait those 5 minutes to load up.

Of course if you are aiming at the kids and are creating another
shoot'em up that I won't be interested in and only they will be and you
have to protect your product from their swap'n copy rings then go ahead
and make it fast, small, nasty, and full of copy protection.  But I won't
even consider buying it.  And if you don't tell me it is fast, small,
nasty, and full of copy protection then after I take it back I will make
a note to myself (just click on a second window in multi-tasking)
to not buy anything more from you!

So please your put your energies into software that is aimed at someone
like me.  I have money and I spend it on games I like and I don't allow
copies to be spread.  Can't you make money in *my* market?
