I a word... "BULLCOOKIES!". Amiga Software wasn't 32bit able until ADOS
1.3. That's 1987 to you and me. And just to put the ball back into your

"As matters stand today, the "In God We Trust" on our Money has a         
  humorous and not a religious connotation: We acknowledge thereby
  that only God has any hope of being able to pay off the debt
  those "Notes" represent."       -Carl Kadie (alt.censorship)
