I'm SICK AND TIRED of people bitching about people bitching about flamewars
being started by people mentioning that a flamewar might be started by their
mentioning a flamewar that hasn't even happened yet, in fact, probably wont
happen until late February... meanwhile, I can get an amiga flamewar RIGHT
NOW, since they are being released next week as freeware, but all they include
is a crippleware version of Game Workbench converted to the Lynx platform
by some demo crew that used some ugly hack to get more than True colour
on a VGA monitor... yet it doesn't even include a hardware clock, even though
the official documentation states that it has a 14MHz clock, gee, I'm sick
of being LIED to by these companies, especially Bill Gates, and if you
want the IP numbers for atari.archive.umich.edu, all you need to do is
read memory location 0xFC7413, but you need to be in supervisor mode to
do that, so you'll need to get a pirated version of DisAssempro, but
that's okat because the DisAssempro has already made enough money, and
besides, I have children to feed, so I can't afford software, especially
since I'm saving up for a Falcon... luck DC bit the big banana, because now
I can get all their warez off the net... I wonder if they have something
to fix my broken SM125 monitor, because I'm loyal to Atari, and I think
people should stop complaining about how long this post is and BUY BUY BUY
some shareware - what's wrong with Blox - and how the bejeezus can I hook-up
my 8-channel DSP device at the same time as my softmodem, even if I can run
the software in TrueColour - not that I have enough memory, since I only have
a 1M machine, and the bus is so slow now that it's only a 16bit bus - damned
lying officials, almost as bad as the version 0.01 Gemulator I bought
for 0.02c - it didn't even run under PCdittoII, what a pile of junk, are
they still in business?
And is Lemmings out for the Atari TSTFM+e030?
And what's MiNT?
And how do I set up GCC?
