Oh, come on!!  If you are going to claim a feature "win" of the ST, pick
one of the real feature "wins".  Using the Amiga terminology of "fast" and
"slow" memory, *all* Atari ST memory would be defined as "slow".

Sure, two types of memory can cause problems (especially for developers with
only one type...), but at least you get to reap the benifits!

Facts, not flames.

(Replace "slow" with "chip" to be more technically correct.)
