What they fed you was a bunch of bullshit.  Come on developers.  Let's
start following Commodore guidelines.  I think EA is full of idiots
anyways.  Most of their games don't work on 020/030 machines at all.
Anything that follows Commodore guidelines will work on any of their
machines.  Period.  Anybody that chooses to ignore these guidlines
should get out of the business.  They are just hurting the Amiga.
