One of the interesting sidelights to this conversation about
bouncing balls is that the Atari version takes up about 11k
on disk...and i was told that the Amiga version takes up about
300+ k.  Is all that extra disk spaced used to store the data
for the sound?

I have also seen the 8 bit Atari machine 130XE (?) with the
same bouncing ball demo...personally i didn't detect a radical
difference in all three (st,amiga,130XE) demos...and if i was
looking for a cheap machine to run bouncing ball demos on
i would choose the 8 bit 130XE.
