There's a lot of misunderstanding about this above statement. The -old- users ar
e the users who have bought a MEGA without blitter and not the 520/260/1040 user
s.

It's free means that there isn't a way to buy a MEGA without a blitter. You'll p
ay for the blitter but you'll get it later. When it's ariving you don't have to
pay anymore.

So, that's justified.
