It you're not making use of the new features, then why bother with the new
chip?  Is this a case where your old Denise is Toast, and you have to buy a
new one anyways (Which would make this a good idea).

  Do you have the 1M agnus? That would be the only limitation (I assume,
I've never actually put a new Denise onto an old 512K Agnus - If you wish,
I can try it).
