HISTORY: Back when "comp.sys.amiga" was actually a newsgroup and not
a hierarchy, there were several heated arguments going on,
all at the same time. (After all, this was a multitasking
newsgroup.)
o C vs. assembly language.
o Games that "take over the machine" vs.
games that multitask.
o Games that do/don't install on a hard drive.
o Copy protection: merits and methods.
o Fantasy encounters involving goats.
Nowadays, thankfully, all of these topics have been settled.
(BIG :-)) But the discussion caused me to write the article
which is now found in the file b/b.01.
To my great surprise, people thought it was a JOKE! This
is why I have posted many followups to the original article,
to clear the record and convince everybody otherwise.
