- Here in Sweden we have just had a demo competition. We received almost
- only "euro-style" demos, but with a twist: As a rule we stated that all
- demos had to give back all resources, be stoppable by the right menu
- button (can you say button B on the CDTV remote), be harddisk installable,
- and more.
-
- So although much of the effects in "euro-demos" might be impossible to
- do without "taking over", there seems to be no problem to make demos
- that at least runs under the OS well enough. All it takes is some
- incentive, like the A3000 that was first prize...
-
- A world-wide compo like that, but for AGA instead might be a good idea...
