Well, hoser, why did you bother buying a multitasking computer if you don't
give a flip about multitasking? I know I do.

While I'm on my soapbox...how about you Europeans' for once writing a multidisk
game, demo, whatever that will take notice that you have more than one floppy
drive, or doesn't yak big time if you happen to be one of the growing number of
people with a hard drive. Or maybe a program that can cope with more than 512K
chip RAM, or more than 512K of RAM, period. In other words, a program that
doesn't crash on anything more than a stock 500 with a monitor.

It's not too much to ask for. Programmers in the US have seen the writing on
the wall (for the most part, except, notably, Electronic Farts) and have re-
sponded with programs truly designed for the Amiga's potential as more than a
pretty darn good game machine.

Coming to you with 3 MB RAM, Huge Agnus, 2 floppy drives, 40 MB hard disk, and
an attitude...
