- You live in a little world... HW information help alot more
- than coders.. EX AGA register information enable multimedia
- developer to create wipe otherwise impossible with the OS.
- It enable to write optimized driver to fully take advantage
- of the HW. It enable hacker to write experimental OS or port
- some...

- The point was:
-
- Keeping HW information away from developer because AT dont want demo
- to be done at the HW level by C0derz is the lamest excuse they can make.

- BTW I never coded a demo in my life... actually not totaly true, but
- the stuff I made work fine on a 060 with cybervision & my good old
- ECS A3000.
- I bang the HW alot more in my multimedia app, the amiga HW and third
- party HW... Using the other people .library would have made the product
- unusable.
