About this amiga 512k crap: Most european amigas are 512k, that's true. Market
research has missed one important issue though, most of these users do not buy
software, and if they do they buy shoot'em ups or similar software. Users with
1 MB are much more interesting for the companies really. This group is willing
to spend more money on quality software. The trend is that most people that
continue to use their amigas for more than occasional joystick bashing have
upgraded or are about to.

Market research is all well and good but quality software is bought by quality
users.

Regards, Jorgen
