I spent several hours downloading some of the BKDC demos after
ftping them from xanth.

toomuch3d, doctor_a, and spigot (the ONLY animations I tried), all
run in 512 according to the README file on xanth.

They won't run on my 512K A1000. Not if I remove the second disk drive,
not if I hit ^D during startup and run it by hand, and not if I loadwb and
endcli and run it by clicking.

I don't know who decided these run in 512K, but I just wasted about 3 hours
of phone time finding out they don't.
