Perhaps he was trying to pacify some Amiga owners to keep them from
squawking for upgrades to halfbright for their machines.  Personally,
I don't mind if C= dosen't want to upgrade for free, I'd PAY to
upgrade my machine.  If C= setup a denise upgrade mechanism in such a
way as to provide some extra revenue (or at least pay for itself) I
wouldn't think that would be too bad of an idea (anybody remember the
Atari 800 CTIA => GTIA upgrades?
