+Really.  While I can't think of any real differences, there's apparently some

+"gp figure".  Right now, I'm about as confused as anyone else on this.

I might consider continuing to use 1.5, except that the FastBench Patch
caused a few programs to complain about not being able to find the Workbench.
So far, Dyna-Show is the only thing that has had problems with 1.6, and I
never use Dyna-Show (except occasionally to show off cool pictures to jealous
friends).

Did 1.4 do the FASTROM stuff the same way 1.5 did?  It might be worth noting
that D-S works under SetCPU 1.4 as well.
