Oops! Forgot to mention! Amigas are the best in the West. To be sure, they
kick everything else to aitch-ee-double toothpicks. They're one of the most
hacked most worked on machines I've ever seen. I love 'em. It's just that
there's a hole for something better. Who gets it, wins.

I learned to use the OS Calls correctly and it's a comparative breeze.
My advice to programmers::: Don't be lazy. I still can't get the kind of
speed I want on BattleZone, but Oh well. Just too damn slow. 

Here's a MAJOR question that makes me think of C64... When I trash my 
memory, sometimes my characters on the screen get HUGE, like some giant scaled
bitmap. Why???? I see no references in documentation that descibe THAT effect at all!
Are there hardware side effects that no ones telling me about?

thanks again.
