The REAL reason for DigiView 3.0 is to fix the serious bug in 2.0
reagrding self-modifying code.

yes, DigiView's DigiDroid (the motorized color wheel) does NOT function
on a 68020 Amiga with the cache enabled; one has to disable the 020's
cache if you wanna use DigiDroid.

Now, wasn't it in May 1985 the people from Amiga said "don't do
self-modifying code"?  I'd hate to tell you all the stuff that DOESN'T
function on an 020 Amiga due to self-modifying code.
