- 1) Novice? Well I guess you can call us novice if you accept the fact that
- we've only been programming the 68000 for 4 years... And if you can do the
- same on a vanilla amiga
-
- 2) You can't help us learn to program.. We know how to program _THE 68000_
- WE FUCKING NEVER SAY THAT 'THIS DEMO RUNS ON 68030'!!! WE CAN NOT GUARANTEE
- THE RESULT OF RUNNING OUR DEMOS ON OTHER CONFIGS THAN OUR OWN BECAUSE WE
- DON'T HAVE THE MONEY TO BUY ANOTHER AMIGA FOR TESTING PURPOSES!!! But since
- you're so keen on the idea of 'helping' why don't you buy us one?
-

- Yep, great idea.

- No, 'coz the most used machine in the demoscene is a plain A500 (ECS) with
- 512 k slow-ram. AND WE DON'T CARE IF OTHERS CAN'T WATCH OUR DEMOS. If you
- want some stuff to show off to your PC-friends then program it yourself...
- Which would make it even more fun.

- Well it worked fine when run on the big screen

- >and it was in place five! Don't they TEST their work before
-
- Is compatability the only thing that counts for you? Oh boy am I glad that
- you were not there (were you?) so you could ruin the competition. Don't you
- understand the beauty of demos?

- Well, I for one wouldn't care
